* The chord forms are simply top portions of root 6,5, and 4 barre chords.
* Let the open D string ring as you play the chords, for extra effect.
* On a Strat, select middle pickup. Medium gain with chorus and 500ms delay.
* Play these chords loud and proud!

* Bridge chords:
*
* F (1st fret)            A (5th fret)            D (open string)
* Run...run...run...run...run...run...run...run...run...run....

*
* Use treble (bridge) pickup, medium gain, chorus, and about 500 ms delay.
* Mute the open D string with your palm.
* Try to get a galloping rhythm going with the delay.
* With a drum machine, use steady rock beat at about 106 bpm. Lots of fun!
