Notes: Capo on the 4th fret to match Fastball's recording. Use chord forms as noted, rather than starting off in C# as the song is written. If you're playing along with the recording, the primary rhythm guitar does not articulate all the chords in the first two lines of each verse. Instead, just hang on the "A" chord while the bass plays out the "G" and "D". If you're playing at a campfire you need to play all the chords in the verse to properly accompany the vocal melody. For the intro riff (and the riff at the end of each verse) you should ignore the high "E" string and catch the key notes on the "B" string (and note that for the "G" chord in this riff you should play the 3rd fret on the "B" string, not the high "E" string this will create the ring on that note the riff requires).
