80's pop rock feel. Please follow the record to understand the pace of these changes. This song was recorded about 47 cents sharp in the key of A, so a capo may or may not be your preference. Solo plays as verses. Choruses build in power and length as the song goes by. Outro plays as chorus 1 repeating to fade with Bruce scat singing many ad-libs.Was this info helpful?
