"Let's Live For Today" (Mogol / Shapiro / Julien) Originally recorded in Italian by the Rokes. The acoustic rhythm part is played on a 12-string tuned down a minor third, so (for example) the C#m is played as Em, the E as G, etc. Intro [2X]: C#m E v v v v v v v v -9---9---9-11-9--|-7---7---7-12-11-| -----------------|-----------------| -----------------|-----------------| -----------------|-----------------| -----------------|-----------------| -----------------|-----------------| ^^^^^^ triplets ^^^^^^^
