This song is designed for two guitars, the guitar I've done is Brian Fallons. If you are
second guitarist replace the A7's with D's. The riff is also different, but I haven't
that out.
Intro Riff: Based around C#m. Chords should be played staccato and palm muted lightly so
creates a buzz.

____________________________________________________________________________
I've noted the G over 'Now' with an asteriks, because the second guitarist, which will
just as cool if you are the one and only guitarist, performs a slide (glissando) from the
G shape down to the 5th fret. Which looks like this:
e|-3-/-5-3-|
B|-3-/-5-3-|
G|-0-/-0-0-|
D|-0-/-0-0-|
A|-2-/-4-2-|
E|-3-/-5-3-|
