Feel free to make edits or suggestions.
Strumming Pattern:Use Ska or Upstroke strumming, U-D-U--U-D-U. Listening to the song will give you
an idea of when to mute but generally let the first upstroke in every triple chop chime and then mute the next
two strokes.

Oh won’t you shoot out lights

{Bridge:
Im still working out the kinks on this part, but if you listen to the song youll hear Sascha Lazor slow
strumming under the trombone. Watching videos I know that this is not exactly correct, but for ease of
fingering I like playing G, C Bm, C G, D Am, C repeat. Feel free to edit or comment so I can fix this
