4/4 time\r\n- hold the Bm for a full measure (4 counts)\r\n- hold the A and E for half a measure each (2 counts each)\r\n- The whole song is the same 3-chord, 2-measure progression on repeat\r\n- No capo\r\n\r\nIntro:  There really is no intro to this song, the volume just crescendos right into the verse on the Bm. \r\nBut if there was an intro I’d say playing the progression twice through (Bm, A, E, Bm, A, E) would be \r\nrealistic. \r\n\r\n\r\nVerse 1 \r\n[tab][ch]Bm[/ch]                     [ch]A[/ch]                  [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWell if I had a dollar for every time you let me
