https://open.spotify.com/track/2jUKXjf8hJcjXqlwmPgwBF Worked out on request for Danny Lemmens. If you like my "work" don't hesitate to add favorite or to give it the STARS it deserves (with explanation?). Here is the list of all the songs I did upload for UG: https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/contribution/3817887-frans.vanuytv/tabs?sort=-date&page=1&per-page=50 ATTENTION: You have a little problem with F#? Then you can try Capo II. USE TRANSPOSE BUTTON -2 ATTENTION: All chords for 2 beats (of triplets, so 6/8) OR count the * D but in my ears not tuned perfect A=440 [Intro 1] | D D/A | D D/A | [Intro 2] | D | D | D | D | [Verse 1]

Two man were standing on a bridge, one jumped and screamed: "you lose".
