or in tab form

| | – – – – – |
| | – – – – – |
| | – – – – – |
| | 4/7 – 7 |
| | 4/7 – 7 | x2
| | 2/5 – 5 |

notes
if you can do it comfortably , i recommend holding the “d” shape between a and Bdim and
sliding between the two .

during the bridge you may like to drop the high E string when playing the D chord
occasionally . it’s also fun
during this section to use the power chord ( 577xxx ) version of A , so that you can slide
back into the E .

if you try and play along with the video , then you’ll realise kevin is using an
alternate tuning ( i don’t know what ) . if anyone can enlighten me then that would be
great and i’ll update this page .

this song is really fun to play , enjoy!

ps good luck with the “woo” parts .
