NB: FROM SECOND VERSE ONWARDS...
If you are on your own, play style 5 where indicated.
If there are 2 of you playing, ideally one on electric, one on steel-
string acoustic, electric guitar plays the initial arpeggio, strike and
hold the chord, and ignore the second bar of style 5, while acoustic =
plays
style 2 instead of style 5.
