Great Song. I grew up loving it and it's super fun to play.
I play it with mostly bar chords to give it some flavor. Go ahead and
throw in some hammer-ons and pull-offs and make it fun.
Perfect example how you can use key changes and simple progressions
to make clever songs that are also catchy.
Also an example of how they just don't make 'em like they used to;)
Enjoy!
