The guitar is tuned standard
[Gb] EADGBE if you're new at this and don't know these chords go to chord form tutorial number 312 on this channel
There's a link in the description below to take you there
We'll start the song by playing E and A and they'll sound something like [E] this
We'll [A]
[E] [A]
[B] start that song by playing E and then follow it with an A chord, but we'll play it this way
[E] 1 2 [G] 3 [E] 4 1 2 3 [A] 4 1 2 3 [E] 4
1 2 3 [A] 4 1 2 3 4 [G] and that's our intro
We're hitting each chord only once, but we're striking the chord just before the 1 beat
So if we count in it'll sound like this 1 2 3 [E] 4
1 2 3 [A] 4 1 2 3 [E] 4 1 2 3 [A] 4
1 2 3 4 and then we'll start into the verses with strumming like [E] this
[A]
[E]
[A] [G] [E] That's just down up down up down up down [A] up down up down up down up
[E] We [A]
will be able to play that
Throughout the first half of the song as far as the verses are concerned
Next we'll do the chorus and the chorus is going to sound something like this
[E] [D] [A] [C]
[E] Well the [G] chorus will strum each chord twice [E] and we'll go E [D] D [A] A [C] C
[G] And [E] then back to our E and [A] A chords
[G] Later we'll add a chord [E] to the verses and that'll sound something like this
Part of you they [A] call the heat
[Em]
[E] Lousy [A] in the [G] street
[E] Singing songs and they carry [A] inside [G] [E] Mostly say
That [A]
[Em] part of the song [E] will play E
[A] a
[G]
G [E] E
[A] A
[G] G and [E] [A]
[G] [E]
[A] [G]
[E] then we'll go back into our chorus
For the ending of the song the chorus will be repeated and it'll sound something like this
[D] [A]
[Em] [C] [E] [D]
[A] [C] [E] [D] For [Em]
[A] [C] [E] the [D]
