Chords with lyrics
This is the way I play Pleasant Valley Sunday by; The Monkees
I think its much less Complicated. The E7E7 and D7D7 Chords I use
are played using the C7C7 finger positon in the 5th fret for the E7E7
and the 3rd fret for the D7. Strumming with a chopping rhythm.
(Lead Riff played twice)
