me a while, Oh she said no

anyway, O she said no
Well I crossed the line in half
the time and that's insane
O she said

(not C as above)
town, won't you?
And daylight keep yourself in
sight, won't you?

My Turn"
Connels - Waiting My Turn off
"One Simple Word"
Capo on 4rd fret and low E
string tuned to D. Chords will
be writtin as if the
4th fret was the nut (ie - a D
is an F#) The idea during the
verses is to let
the base note ring out over the
D chord. I usually hit the
bass note by itself
and then play the whole chord.
Also, sometimes I leave out
the F# on the
first string.
