Just Dropped In by Kenny Rogers [Notes: the guitars are so distorted it's hard to tell, but the chord notated as Am7 might actually be A7#9 (54555x) - try both and see which you think sounds more like the record. The bass is definitely tuned below concert pitch (see the second break), and I suspect that the distorted rhythm guitar is as well - try tuning to DGCFAD and playing in Em/Fm/F#m. -- AWR] Intro: (backwards guitar over B minor pentatonic scale; end on D note) Chorus:
DmYea
