**NOTE** this song is not in standard tuning like most of he songson this album (Choo Choo Hot Fish) it is was
slightly transposed about a quarter below standard tuning for example: if youare using a snark tuner it should
an E string should be tuned about 6 or so marks to the right of the green line. or however it sounds better.
One more thing i didnt exxactly line up the all of the chords with the words that they come in on, I tried but
it was taking more effort than I signed up with, but you should be able to hear the chord change in the song.
