    I think its safe to say no one will ever be able to play any Monte Montgomery Song
for note. I mean he's just that good. However I think I got the chords pretty close. All
takes is to put a little bit of your own spin on it to make it work.

     You OFTEN...you LOVE...it MAKES...the one i HATE...

      Ok Here is where it gets really tricky and weird. You'll have to bear with me here
of these chords are wrong but they work. AND REMEMBER THIS IS ONLY THE WAY I PLAY IT.
SURE THERE ARE MANY GUITAR PLAYERS (MAYBE YOU) THAT COULD THINK OF SOMETHING WAY BETTER. 
if you cant here you go:

   This part is Unison with the vocals. It goes as so:

         Nothin but the truth but what was mine...(lol i dont quite know all the lyrics)

    Well there yuh have it folks. I did the best i could. I hope somebody come's along
when there tryin to play one of the worlds greatest guitarist's song. Monte is my hero,
he doesnt get enough credit. So if you read this try to spread his music to as many 
as you know. Cause i dont think theres one guitarist that wouldn't like MONTE MONTGOMERY!
