A fantastic song yet rather simple to play. The song consists of three repetitive chords and a catchy guitar riff. If you have a hard time playing only barre chords you can transopse it (+2) and put a capo on the 2nd fret. This is a simple rendering after a few listens to the song, so don't expect it to be 100% accurate. Please comment if there are any concerns.
