when you're playing this its best to use barre chords, its a lot easier. Also listen out
the strumming pattern, because it changes quite a bit during the song.

F (133211) or (x8,10,10,10,8)

Am (577555)
D (x57775)

Solo : For the first part alternate between F on the 1st fret and F on the 8th. The
part, just fool around with F on the 13th fret. The last part is just a fast strum of C and
the first part of riff 1.

repeat the last chorus twice, then end with on F on the 8th fret.
