D (See below) I'm waiting on the day For the outro of the studio version you essentially play improve on a D chord and alternate between three bass notes (first being Open D, Second being 3nd fret of Open A and third being 2nd fret of Open A). Play around with that and tweak it to whichever way suits you. Open for suggestions @ bendavidkremer@...gmail.com (minus the ...) - I've purposefully "dumbed down" the song so that beginners etc would be able to give it a crack. Cheers, Ben
