	        This song is in 4,4 timing. 
The intro, although may sound daunting, is piss really. 
I watched Chris play it on the weekend, so I knew where 
to play the lead, and then I figured it from there...so there !!

The basic format for any Jebediah song is a recurring riff over some power 
chords. So here?s the riff...

G----5------5-----5------ 
D------4-6----4-6-------- 
A------------------------

This is played over a few times before the rest of the band kick in and 
it?s played during the chorus too.  
 
Ok.. and here?s the chord progression:

D--3--|--6--|--6--|--4--|-- 
A--1--|--4--|--6--|--4--|-- 
E--1--|--4--|--4--|--2--|--
