Warren Zevon - Dont Let Us Get Sick

dont let us get sick warren zevon lifell kill ya 1999

the weird Cmajsus2 chord is played x2001

xi pluck the strings individually like he does , rather than strum , it definitely sounds
better that way . also , when it comes to the Am chord at the end of the third line of the
verse/Chorus ( i . E all right? the line and in time ) , he does a little decoration
phrase where he plucks the last three strings of the Am chord kinda quickly , listen out for
it in the song , its a nice touch .

im pretty sure its all correct here , maybe not exactly how he plays it but it sounds
good , thats for sure . another classic by warren zevon , enjoy and please leave comments
if you find any mistakes .
