Hi, this is going to be Mcfly’s new single, a double a-side with Ballad of Paul K. I
no-one had done the intro or first chorus properly. So here is the full song, including
the
for the intro and verse. I’m pretty sure it’s correct, but if you notice something wrong
or want to talk about something guitar related then you can e-mail me at basket.case.24@gmail.com
Happy Playing!
