Subject: CRD : The Tower - Chris de Burgh


I strum the intro something like this : (all downward strums except
the third chord which is strummed upward). I don't know what chord it is.
As you can see, I'm pretty hopeless at tabulature but I'm sure if you hear
the song, you can figure what the tab below means!

--2-2-3---2-2-3-
--3-3-3---3-3-3-
--2-2-2---2-2-2-

There is also another chord which is like a D so I'll call it D*.
It is played by :
