This is essentially the exact tab for The Pretenders tab for this song, but I posted
just point out the song is in Eb tuning, rather than the pretenders version which is in

a standerd D chord but you might not be quite so familar with a C# chord, which is what it
be. So if you do play along, DROP YOU GUITAR HALF A SEMITONE
