  CHORDS (PLAYED BY RUDOLF SCHENKER) :
 
 (open E) background guitar harmony:
 
 
 
 
 background guitar harmony:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 same as previous intro
 -Verse 3,4- same as verse 2
 
 
 
 
* in the brackets you strike only one note and not a chord; you can use
the 2 finger chord instead (e.g. for B sound | | | 3 |
---------------------> | 1 | | |
  the note that must sound B will be 1)
  * for the intro I would suggest to use this C5 chord between frets
  3-5:
  1st string | 1 | | |
  2nd string | 1 | | 4 |
  3rd string | 1 | | 3 |
  4th string | 1 | | |
  5th string | 1 | | |
  6th string | | | |
  * for verses there's a background guitar harmony - I think it's
  Rudolf's)...It's like a phaser picking using the Em chord on 7th
  fret. You also could play these chords acoustically as well
  with no use of distortion. So...HAVE FUN !
 PS: During the chorus, in the line A Em D Em the chord D might be
  wrong; it might be a Finstead...anybody who thinks is F# (same as
  for the bass) please let me know.
