There are several things you can play that fit into the first part of verse 2 that
around that chord, so long as its that chord you play you cant go wrong so find
you
The last part is for a bass but you can work it on guitar.
Bridge/break down
After playing the chorus into the main riff as usual (but with a big bend at the end of
third extra bar) it gets tricky. You can mix n match between chorus and riff;
Play the main riff but play the G notes on the D eg

This is my first full tab and it is the whole song every bit you want to know. I’ve
it over and over again and i’m sure its perfect which is good since this tab doesn’t exist
Get it, learn it and spread the good “Words From Reuben”! If you’ve got a problem with
and think you can do better then where was your tab when i wanted to learn this song?
