Chords

Performance notes: The chords (all barre chords) played during the verses, intro, and solos are basically strummed to mimick the syllables with a quick rest between them, except for the F and F# (passing chord), while the chords during the choruses are strummed in a straight 1-2-3-4 1-2-3-4 pattern.
