Read About It by Midnight Oil
from the album "10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1"

INTRO: (7 beats/bar)

B C#m  E C#m A C#m

timed something like this:

e-|--------------------------------------------------------|
B-|-4---5-5---5-9-9-5---5---5---4---5-5---5-9-9-5---5---5--|
G-|-4---6-6---6-9-9-6---6---6---4---6-6---6-9-9-6---6---6--|
D-|-4---6-6---6-9-9-6---7---6---4---6-6---6-9-9-6---7---6--|
A-|-2---4-4---4-7-7-4---7---4---2---4-4---4-7-7-4---7---4--|
E-|---------------------5---------------------------5------|

(It's pretty hard to play this way, so I suggest ignoring the notes
on the B-string)
