in the intro bit after you play the first part twice, Im not sure if it is an Am... I think it may be a F7 (as in (xx3210))
So F7 C Am G E
Other then that I give you 5* great tab!
Bloody great tab man, for once someone has put chords with the lyrics all the way to the end.
This was great I have been playing this for a long time. It is also good at impressing because people think the intro is a very complex and sit in awe after you bust it out. Then you do the simple beat for the chords and throw in a little singing. Yeah
