NOTE: This tab is NOT intended to represent the way Andy Summers
plays it, but a fuller sounding chord version for an accompaniment
on an acoustic guitar. I include the 7th to the Bm, which is part 
of the vocal line, and the A bass guitar note to the G chord.
There are actually two guitars, one just sustains the m11 chord,
while the off-beat guitar hits basic triad chords with a slapback
echo added (Approx. 330ms. delay) 

CAPO: 3rd fret (Will then sound in the recorded key of Dm)

Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo:
 = x20230    = x00033    = 320033        = 022000
  = x20202          = 577655    = xx0232  () = 2xxxxx

The (Em/F#) is an optional passing bass note only

h = Hammer-on note
