Chords aren't realy played, by the guitar, but I thought they might come in handy.
PART B
The second chord progression is:
| Cm | Cm | Ab | Ab | Fm | Fm | Ab | Ab |
Over which arpeggios are played, I can't really make out exactly how this guy plays these,
but the following sounds about right and is sort of playable while running around on stage.
| Cm | Cm | Ab | Ab |
