       Ambut (x02210@1)it could be the other way 'round to the ground where I know I must stay.


(***NOTE***      G* is the G chord but only strumming the E A and D strings
                                to get the         sound of the chord. )
                                                   low


Later on in the song the lyrics and chords go...
  C (x32010@1)            Am (x02210@1)         G*                 Am (x02210@1)      Am (x02210@1)    G*       Am (x02210@1)      G**
"Tell me a good one, maybe we'll die.........togetherrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, etc.......

(***NOTE***    G* is the same as above.
                             G**  is the Gchord (320003@1)but only strumming the GB and Estrings (022100@1)                              to get the HIGH sound of that chord.
