Tuning: C# F# B E G# C#
You will need to tune each guitar string down a step and a half to play this song.
Chords are strummed once each for the first 8 bars of the song.
For the second 8 bars of Verse 1 and for Verse 2 you could just strum the chords openly but I have included
a tab component to play it like the record. Listen to the record for the exact timing of the notes and chords.
