But it basically\r\n[tab]follows the same [ch]Em[/ch] - [ch]Am[/ch] - [ch]Em[/ch] format for the verses and if you listen to the song you'll\r\nbe able to hear them. For better understanding I put the parts where it stays on Em [/tab]\r\n(where the chord continues) in brackets just so people know I wasn't leaving out a spot\r\nthere. I figured it out on piano and haven't played it on guitar but I would think it \r\nwould transpose pretty much the same, let me know any suggestions.\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 1]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]Em[/ch]\r\nMy old man is a bad man but[/tab]\r\nI can't deny the way he holds my hand\r\n[tab]       [ch]Am[/ch]                        [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nAnd he grabs me, he has me by my heart[/tab]\r\nHe doesn't mind
