Notes:
- This song features some change ups in the time signature. What I'm counting as 6/4 might actually be
a measure of 4/4 and a measure of 2/4. But it's close enough for rock and roll.
- In the bridge, I play a B5 instead of a Bm because it's faster for me than playing a barre chord.
- I write chord charts for my own use as a rhythm guitarist. I don't claim they are the "right" way.
They're not intended to be taken as tabs - which notate exactly how a song was played on a recording.
