==============================================================
To make it more interesting, you can add some variations
to the chords, e.g.:
Dsus2 (x-x-0-2-3-0)
Gsus2 (3-x-0-2-0-3)
Gmaj7 (3-x-0-0-0-2)*
G6 (3-x-0-0-0-0)*
Asus2 (x-0-2-2-0-0)
A7sus (x-0-2-0-3-0)**
A7 (x-0-2-0-2-0)**
*) Play these chords on the 3rd (Gmaj7) and 4th (G6) beat after the G.
**) Play these chords at the A on the first line of the verse.
So A7sus on 1st beat and A7 on 3rd.
And the A7 on every 'meet'.
