Yeah, [D] let's [B] go through an acoustic part for [D] I'm your captain [G] indeed
[D]
And it starts with a little riff.
That's indeed
[N] Reminds me of Pleasant Valley Sunday a little bit
Which sounds a lot more complicated than it is it starts with this little riff
[D]
[Bm] [D]
[Bm]
[D] [A] [D]
[G]
So you start with an open D string now the the G string is going to go [B] seven five [A] four
then hammer on [B] two and
Then the B string is on and off at [Gbm] one right and there's an open D string in between [A] there, so
[Bm] sorry
[G] [Am]
[D] [Bm] seven five [G] four
Hammer on two [B]
then one on the B string
[G]
[Am] [D] The second time you're just hammering on the G at two and the B at [Am] one and then [A] back to the and
Back on the G [G] string
[D] Starts over again, and in fact when he does that
When he does it starting over again you actually hear him
You hear him [A] slide that [D] G string back up to seven to start it again
[Am] [D]
See and [G] then this
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
[D] [G]
This one it looks like a G
[F] Except the A is at three and the [B] D is at two
G string open B and [C] E at three
[D]
[G] [D] Electric [G] I
Don't know how many does of those and then it gets [D] into the main riff of [G] it [D] [G] [D]
[G] [D] D
off the E string
[G] [C]
Back to that [G] C.
What's that C sus9 or something?
Except if the one little subtlety is [D] he doesn't do
[G]
[D] [G] [D] he does the
[C] [G] He does the high strings first and then gets [D] those low ones in it [G] and [D] [G]
[D] [G] [D] [G]
[D] [G] then as it gets into it
[D] It's more [G] [D] [G] [Dm]
[A] does that for quite a while through the verse
[D] And then it'll stop
On a D when it gets to that break
do-do [Dm]-do-do
Do-do [Bb]-do-do-do-do-do
[Dm] Right D minor
Comes in with a D minor [Bb] and then to a B flat.
[Dm] I like it as a B flat six actually [G] and do that
Do the high [Bb] E string at three.
[Dm] [Bb]
[A] I don't know if that is a six though.
He might just [Dm] be doing that
to be [Bb] mine
And if you wanna if you don't want to borrow some people have trouble borrowing it
[B] Be flat you could do it just do your a move up a one [A] fret and then
The high [Eb] E string forget [Fm] the a string the high E [Dm] string at one so you could do
[Bb] [Dm]
[Bb] [Dm]
[Bb] [F]
[A] A seven
[Dm]
[Bb] [Dm]
[Bb] [Dm]
[Bb] [F]
[A] [D]
[C] [D] I
[G] [D]
[G] [D] [G] [D]
[G] [Am] Think the only thing that [D] is different it'll go it'll stop again and you get the water coming in and you
[Gb]
[C] [D] You [C]
[B] know that that part in [D] the outro and that is just
[G] You
It's the [D] same two chords you see [G] your D and C
[E] Slots nice thing all through the outro if you wanted to
Do some major pentatonic soloing and [D] fills over the top it but the [G] main
[D] Is just a D and [Ab] C all the way [F] all the way through the sort of hey Jude [D] ending of it
So that's it
[D]
And it starts with a little riff.
That's indeed
[N] Reminds me of Pleasant Valley Sunday a little bit
Which sounds a lot more complicated than it is it starts with this little riff
[D]
[Bm] [D]

then one on the B string
[G]
[Am] [D] The second time you're just hammering on the G at two and the B at [Am] one and then [A] back to the and
Back on the G [G] string
[D] Starts over again, and in fact when he does that
When he does it starting over again you actually hear him
You hear him [A] slide that [D] G string back up to seven to start it again
