Another beautiful two chord song :>

Standard tuning

This song sounds best using the E-shape barre chord for A and the A-shape 
barre chord for D
                                                                                
   E  A  D
e--0--5--5-----------
B--0--5--7-----------
G--1--6--7-----------
D--2--7--7-----------
A--2--7--5-----------
E--0--5--------------

There is a little distorted line that sounds like a drunk mosquito with 
perfect pitch that starts at about 1:37 (now fall to the bed...).  I just 
use a little distortion with the tone backed off a bit thru a bridge 
humbucker... (Tanya probably fed it thru some weird effect box, oh well) it 
sounds ok.

Play the whole phrase twice and then stop at the line

(the word "now" is beginning to look a bit strange to me now)
