John seems strum the sixth string on the F chord and the fifth and sixth strings on the Csus4 and Bbsus4 somewhat lightly in order to place emphasis on the guitar melody.” | F | Csus4 | Bbsus4 | F Csus4 | one, three Stay away from me five, seven Good children get nothing one, two, two and a half Stick around here?
