Queen - Cool Cat (Deacon/Mercury) Album: Hot Space Comments: I worked this out by watching James Rundle's lesson (https://binged.it/2GMKEfg) and playalong on YouTube (https://binged.it/2GKQXjE) as well as this one by basix4: https://binged.it/2GOyvGH, but James Rundle's chord boxes do not always correspond to what he's actually playing.
