notes: the quick change to C and G at the end of many lines is omitted
it occurs everywhere but 'if there ain't no wall / you got to move...'
the run through from C to Am via the B note is a familiar ny trick...
added:
Neil embellishes the G chords by hammering on the
E note on the second fret of the D string with his
index finger.
I also believe that he plays some of his G chords
in the D chord shape at the 7th fret (G/D).
Strum loosely with an easy feel.
