Capo: 2

Rings by Toad the Wet Sprocket Transcribed by Scott Josselyn (SBJosselyn@aol.com) CAPO 2 There are two guitars.. one strumming chords, the other strums then picks some notes out of the chord. The C chord has some Cadd9 flourishes... (The solo might not by in octaves but since I can't afford all those cool effects this gets me close...)
