F F# G
I've always liked this song but there's never been an easy or full version
to play on an acoustic so here's my go at it. I like to use an open G,
but try rockin' between G = 320003 and G2 = 320033. The Bb, I play as
Bb = 113331 and the F as F = 133211. I tended to use barre chords for
the whole of the song when I initially learnt it.
Hope you like my rendition of this truly GREAT song. Matt Taylor rules.
Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLkU-FjWx7U
