Home Johnnyswim Interpretation by Stephen O'Hora It's played with some flourishes on the G chord at the end of each line, the "G-C" is like: |----3---3--3---3--3-| |--------------------| |--------------------| |-----------2------2-| |----2------3------3-| |-3--3---3------3----| While on the "G" it's played much like this: |----3---3--3---3--3-| |--------1------1----| |--------------------| |--------------------| |----2---------------| |-3--3---3--3---3--3-| It's easy to pick up when you listen to the song to get the rhythm right.
