that's basically it. there's two guitars in the song. the first plays that
part and the other plays a reptiotion of the following chords:
Dm A7 G. then the end of the verse comes in, and i guess you can
throw in a Bm. here are the verses:-)
Verse 1:
Bet you're wondering how i knew 'bout your plans to make me blue, with some
other guy that you knew before. between the two of us guys you knew i love
you more. it took me by surprise i must say when i found yesterday
Ooh I

Verse 2:

inside. losin you would end my like you see, cause you mean that much to me.
you could have told me yourself that you found someone else. instead I
Chrous:
Verse 3:

can't help being confused if it's true please tell me dear? do u plan to let
me go for the others guy that you knew before.
Oooh I
Chrous:
p.s. if there are 2 guitar players around, one person play the crap at the
top, and another play the samething, but just improvise.
3rd String-5th string
4th String-6th string,
meaning, the other person play a nice bassy part, just following the same
shit at the top, but using 3rd string as the 5th string.
any problems, confusion, Death threats, requests, (Live (the group), AC/DC,
Sringe Toting PIlots!) anything, or if your just sitiing around your Dorm,
bored, and if want to talk about modern music, mail me!
