Myers" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII Here are the chords for this song as closely as I could figure them out. He played it somewhat differently on Saturday Night Live, so I'm including what I hear on the CD, but also noting where he seemed to do things differently. Also take note of a weird chord that I don't know the name of that I've marked with asterisks and included a crude tab of how it is played.
