Peace - Money
Capo 3
Basically in it's most simplest form, it's the same 3 chords throughout but it's possible to make an pretty
interesting acoustic variation by switching in some sustained chords and playing the riffs along with basic
chords forms.
Chords used
Em - |022000|
C - |-32010|
Am - |-02210|
Sometimes nice to switch in Cmaj7 - |-32000| for C and Asus(?) - |-022000| for variation.
These chord forms also make it easier to play the riffs along as they only really need one or two fingers.

There's a nice bass/synth (not totally sure which) riff that playing in the chorus that can pretty easily
be played with the chords for something a bit more interesting

to the chords but it's roughly something like this)

Open wide me
Poison slightly

Daily slop inside inside the box

As a kid in full or arctic fox
