Chords

you can do the whole song in power-chords (playing only the 3 low strings (E A D), at least i prefer it that way, and if you are not too lazy tune your guitar to Drop D and play the Dms as a power chord, the D chord sounds better 1 octave down (low D string than 5 on the A string) Opening (is only on the high e and B strings): [Intro]
