Note: Alot of the time you can cheat with the B minor and just play B so  
you don't have to muck around with moving your finger shapes.  And this  
is quite tricky to play, sorry 'bout that...just blame Simon!  Also, all  
these chords are barred (G 3rd; C 3rd; D 5th; Bm 2nd), that's why it's  
tricky.
