Key: A minorAm

Difficulty: Novice

The album version of this song starts with Parks on his bass and Ben not playing. However, Ben often does play
at the start when they perform live. Another change when they play live is the addition of an extra note.
The following is changed:

FF|---------------------------------|   FF|------------------------------------|
C majorC|---------------------------------| -> C majorC|------------------------------------|
G+G|---------------------------------|   G+G|------------------------------------|
D MajorD|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-|   D MajorD|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-8\7|

Ben does the same change. He also plays some blues pentatonic licks in verse 2, which can be improvised. There
are a few lyrical changes, too, but nothing too large.

(Verse 1)
