for a start the chord played in the verse is a C5 chord and ther is an easier way to play the chorus bit:


e------------------------------------


B------1------1--3s5------------------


G----2------0-------------------------


D--3------3---------------------------


A------------------------------------


E------------------------------------





e-----------------3s5---------------


B------1------1----------------------


G----2------0-------------------------


D--3------3---------------------------


A------------------------------------


E------------------------------------
