Portugal The Man – So American chords

The song plays the verse with an E9+ chord as the iii in the progression, however you 
can play an em and it will sound fine. The am in the verse is played as a barre chord, but 
in the chorus it's open.

E9+             am   --4--        --5--|   --3--        --5--|   --0--        --5--|   --2--        --7--|   --2--        --7--|   --0--        --5--|
