Plough - Speedy Ortiz

I learned this by listening to the song and watching videos of them playing it live
so I know it's not 100% accurate but I think it's pretty close.

(Y.H.V.H now...)
Here I think they just make noise on the guitar for a few bars. I don't know if they
actually have anything specfic that they're supposed to play for this bit, it always
seems random.
