D(var): there?s a point where it's easier to play it here because of the
fill (and sounds consistent with the song). If you are just strumming you can keep playing
it in the first form.

These are very similar to the chords in standard tuning: only the 6th string (D) changes
by going up 2 steps. Along the song, I mark a few ?x? which is just to mark where I do a
bit of percussion by tapping my thumb against the 6th string to make a snare drum sound.
You don't have to play it,and when learning the song,I would recommend avoiding it this
as it can get complicated. Once you get used to the picking though, see what you
like and play around with it.

The song doesn?t have a chorus, though the verses sort of resemble themselves.
I put the pick up lines words where they fall in with the first playthrough of the verse
for reference. Full lyrics at the end. This is a blues/rock song, so listen to it to get
a feel for the rhythm.

First three verses are identical.
Fourth verse has fills.
Outro plays mostly like a verse, except for the ending.

She's a no good dooney

I believe I'll dust my broom
Girlfriend the black man you been lovin
