"Dear Joan" by Tabitha's Secret

I've worked on this a little bit but I can't figure out the chorus, if
someone can get it would you update this page and e-mail me at
"mwashing@ascc.carroll.edu".  This is played with a capo on the 5th fret so
be sure to remember this while reading the tab.  Also, if you are confused
on the staff, I made a figure to show the 5th fret capo'd.

Other than that there is a chorus that I don't know how to play.  I think
that makes up the whole song, but if you can prove me wrong, please do.  I
want to know how to play the whole song.

Here'e the order of the song:

Verse (tab played twice)
Bridge (same as chorus, I think)
Chorus
Verse (tab played twice)
Bridge (same as chorus, I think)

Transition (same as verse)
