Everybody always asks me how she's doing. Has she really lost her mind? I said "I couldn't tell you, I've lost mine."

the intros like this
first chord- Am
second chord- 1 on low e(2f), 2 on g(2f), 3 on b(3f)
third chord- C
fourth chord- 2 on a(2f), 1 on b(1f)

repeat chords 1 to 3
then- 3 on d(4f), 2 on b(3f)

f = fret
i dont know if you can understand that, but thats the only way i know how to tell it
does that help?
