 She fills my bed with gasoline
 D MajorD        C majorC

Well thats it just get the strumming figured out and enjoy.
That harmonic part after the first chorus I couldn't really
figure out by ear but it works for me I'm sure it's not
totally correct but the rest of the song should be fairly
close. Enjoy.
