Chords are played in standard position (A: X02220, G: 320033, D: XX0232)
as you pick arpeggios up and down the strings. There is also a "tickle" of
the 3rd fret on the high e string during the D chord (making it Dsus4 for a
split second) during the verses. Listen to the song and you'll hear what I
mean.
VERSE 1:
A G
Dear Mister Fantasy, play us a tune,
D A lick
Something to make us all happy.

Do anything, take us out of this gloom,

Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy.
