Strumming
There is no strumming pattern for this song yet. Create and get +5 IQ
i was looking long and hard for this song but didnt find it here. so i decided
to take matters into my own hands. some of the chord names are made up because
i dont know the real names...but if you use the 'chord key' that i'm putting
here, it will all make sense.
questions, comments, insults, email me guitaristwithastockingcap@hotmail.com
peace out, acj
