Parts of some songs are actually played using power chords (E5 = 022xxx) I tabbed these with full chords so whether they are Major or Minor doesn't make a huge difference. Whether you play power chords or the chords shown is your choice. . When you see a line in the lyrics below another line with no chords or space in between, copy the chords for the line above. It's usually obvious what to play. . For a few of the songs I dropped in the riff that makes it so catchy :-) . Sometimes chords sound best as C-based chords e.g. E = x7645x (chord name = lowest note). For instance an Eb x68886 might sound too high or an F 133211 might sound too low, and could be replaced with Eb x6534x and F x8756x . At the bottom I included simpler versions for some songs using a Capo. These are meant to simplify the song and minimise the amount of barre chords used. ~~~~~~~ 1.
