This song is basically just made up of only 3 chords and 1 lead guitar part
that plays a couple times in the song. I realize that it is extremely easy
to figure this song out.. but since you're here reading this, obviously you
haven't done it yourself. So here it is.
Here are the chords that play throughout the whole song.
It starts off with a B chord, then it goes to a C#m, then an E and then back
to B.
Rest = Mute sound
