VERSE -i'm not gonna type the words, just the chord progression. Its only
three chords
Chord Structure
Name eadcgbe
F5 x810 10 xx
E5 x799xx
G 355433
Just repeat those chords through the verse. Make sure you strum all the way
through the barred G chord-it makes it sound better.
CHORUS- listen to the song to get the rhythm down. Change between Bm, A, and
G is pretty quick at first, but practice makes perfect!
Name eadcgbe
C5 x355xx
Bm x24432
A x02220
G 355433
After the chorus, play the intro again, then the verse then the chorus again
until the bridge.
BRIDGE
Name eadcgbe
Bm x24432
C x32010
Bm
Everything has chains
C <------- play this pattern throughout
Absolutely nothings changed bridge
Back to the CHORUS, then there's the little bass interlude, after which, you
play the intro again. The chords for the end are E5, A, C.
That's It!!!!! Email any comments to GuitarPJ17@aol.com
