Chords

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Jeremy Email: [email protected] Listen for strumming pattern. Sounds like twice on the bass strings then the rest. Have included the bass line as well because I think it adds a lot to the song.
