1000 Years
Yukon Blonde
I love this song but I couldn't even find the lyrics on the web, much less the
chords. I tried to transcribe the lyrics as best I could but it’s hard to tell
what they are saying at some parts.
Intro:
These are the chords played during that awesome intro riff. Each letter represents
a beat. If you don't get what I mean just try playing along with the song.
Also, if you are playing this acoustically (1 guitar) you can hum the lead riff over the chords.
