Oh Candy chords by Cheap Trick

Chords with lyrics

Artist: Cheap Trick
Title: Oh, Candy
Album: Cheap Trick, Silver

Composed by Rick Nielsen
Tabbed by Chris Clark

Not to be confused with "Oh, Caroline" and/or "Oh Claire." Yet another
fab song about drugs and suicide, thus the prototype for "Downed" both
lyrically and musically (all hail the mighty C9C9).
