You can really play around with the feel of this song. You can take a bar chord approach, playing only the bottom three strings, you can play the whole bar chord, or you can use the corresponding open chords. Also, as you can probably tell, I haven't shown the correct strumming. Listen to the record for that, it's easy enough.

Bassist Victor Damiani, makes up a cool and steady bass lines
with a variation at the last part of the song. I have not yet wrote the
variation at the last part but it's pretty simple and you can figure it out.
If you have any comments or suggestions, please e-mail me at the address
above. Thanks and have fun.
