Chords

When you see "A#m - F#m" it means each chord is played half a beat You can use capo on 1st fret and play D as C-sharped chord on 2nd fret to simplify the fingering. You can play [Verses] using [Riff 2] or just picking the chords. After [Outro] you should play [Riff 3] over [Riff 1] where possible. [Riff 1]
