The Sixth Sense, I mean Chord

This next song I worked on had a mixture of both focuses: chords and finger picking. If you've ever heard Blister in the Sun by the Violent Femmes, it's a fun and bouncy song to play and it only introduces one chord that isn't a major. The Em (or E minor) chord is reeally easy to play, since it's just the E Major chord but with the third string from the bottom (the G string, ha) played open. With this song, I finally was able to play a sixth chord, and successfully learned my first whole song. Here's the Em chord layout, followed by the tab!
