Shutting Detroit Down Chords

   
ok the other version of this totally slaughtered the names of the chords so i'm 
rewriting it with the correct chord names...

G=320033
D=000232
Cadd9=032033
C=032010
Em=022000
F=133211 (bar)

by the way, the F's in the chorus really arent neccisary but thats how Rich does it.
