This is a mad one to rock out with... and not too hard either..

INTRO

VERSE
String      E A D G B e
string no.  6 5 4 3 2 1

Bm          7 9 9 7 7 7
A           5 7 7 6 5 5
E           0 2 2 1 0 0

This part is basically drums and bass sporadic clean
strummed Bm, A and E chords let to ring when they are strummed.
The guitar does have an effect on it though...

If you want to play it on your acoustic and you have no drum and
bass try using Jacks favourite reggae strum on the parts that are
just drum and bass, but letting the chords ring where they do on
the album...

CHORUS
Bm     7 9 9 7 7 7
D      x 5 7 7 7 5
A      5 7 7 6 5 5
G      see run below

G run... as in intro
