Repeat Chorus
If you mess around with the chords, you should be able to figure out the riff/
solo. I'm not terribly good at doing rhythm sections. Sorry!
Sounds better and easier to play with barred F and G if your fingers can handle it.
The F G F C timing pattern plows steadily through chorus and verses with the exception of F ('Put') held
for an extra bar at the end of the chorus. This is tricky to time properly with the strumming pattern.
