The original studio version is played on 2 acoustic guitars, one in

standard tuning and one in open D (DADF#AD).  The main guitar is the

open D one.

This is all the way through the verse.





Chorus is different:



G   Gsus9    G           Gsus9

But what can a poor boy do



  G                         Gsus9

except to sing for a rock'n'roll band



G      Gsus9  G                            Gsus9 G

Cos in sleepy London town there's just no place  for



                D

Street Fighting Man



Chords here:  G          low { 5 5 5 5 5 5 } high

              Gsus(add9) low { 5 5 7 6 5 5 } high

              D          low { 0 0 0 0 0 0 } high





The second acoustic guitar doubles the first, playing C and F in the usual

way, but tacet in chorus.
