All he gave them was a smile ....
All played in normal pitch.
Play out with the last 3 intro chords on the main riff.
There are 2 guitars in this song, these are just the
chords and a little riff thrown in for good measure.
You can expand on these chords by exploiting the other
guitar parts.
Play along with the song and it should make sense. There
is probably a lot missing and it is very dependant on a
slight of hand strumming. Good Luck
Yes!………those guys could play, ………man.
