    VERSE 1:
  • --------
     
    The way I've written the words under the chords here is only an approximation
  • of the way it actually sounds on the live version. Donald really rushes
    through some of the lines - so I've put the chord changes to correspond
    more closely with the changes in the original version.

    The tab of the original recording was done with my ears and an

    he original sample at half the speed but with original pitch.
