Thanks to "gweetster" for posting "weeds in the wheat" or i might never have gotten around to this. This is the same song with a few corrections here and there to the chords and chord placement. I've also included the intro... enjoy. Keep in mind all chords are in barre form in this song. Like gweetster, i have included the fret locations where they may be needed.
