THE CHORDS FOR THE CHORUS ARE
C G A2
Slow Cheetah come before my forest.
the chords stay the same throughout the chorus
Just use your ear to hear the variations!
Enjoy! this sounds awesome and exactly like the song when you get it right
because the strings have a nicer tone and ring through with the Capo.
If you don't have a capo, then stick with the other tabs.
