Intro/Chorus Details w/ Strumming Timing:

Notes: The previous tabs made this so confusing. The basic chords seem simple enough.
They are just a little repetitive and get spiced up a bit. I wouldn't take it too
seriously as this is mostly a very simple song. 

(Basics...)
|1  & .  2  & .  3  & .  4  & .  |
|E                               |

|C#m7                            |

I was surprise there wasn't a decent tab in this site for this song. Hopefully, this is one.
If not, let me have it - you Clash fans seem pretty picky/nasty.
