I can't get no... (repeat to fade)Notes:
The Tab Intro gives you some idea about the timing if you are playing the guitar riff with either notes or strummed chords. In this case the distorted guitar is playing the notes (both written and tabbed), while the steel string guitar is playing the chords with the same rhythm pattern.
D/A means you play a D chord leading with the 'A' bass note.
D/A is played exactly the same as playing a 'D' chord except you include 'A' on the 5th string. (see charts above)
This song is ideal for beginners, especially if you are just strumming along... very easy chords.
