This is the part Jesse Tobias plays on the electric guitar, with some distortion. It is the same as above, except the individual arpeggio style picking is replaced by a slide up the fret board. If you can’t get it, watch the video on Youtube and you can see what happens:
             G        Am           F      Am

The chords played by Boz Boorer on the acoustic guitar are as follows, remember, capo on fret. The rhythm and timing is pretty simple really. Verse: G Am F Am X 3 G “I have decided…” Chorus: C Am D7 F/ E7 “I’m throwing my arms around, around Paris, Am C E F Because, only stone and steel, accept my love” Hope this is okay, I don’t think I’ve missed anything out. Any feedback or corrections are appreciated.
