@Peter Wolf...the chords are G / G7 / C / G / E / A7 / D / G then walkdown/turnaround...let me know how that works....
@Peter Wolf ,thank you .
For the life of me I could not understand the bit G/E A/D it was the D that I couldnt get my brain around ,IT's a D7 with the F# in the bass now my fingers work they kept tangling up at that cord in the tab its just 2 string,All learning together,
Cheers Dave
