 ** GUITAR TUNED DOWN 2 FRETS (DGCFAD tuning) **
So when you play Dm-shape you'll get Cm, A shape gives you G, 
 F shape gives you Eb, and G shape gives you an F. 

[Intro]


      Dm                          Dm                                        
D|----------------------------------------------------|
A|--12b13------12b13---12-10----------10-10-10-10--12-|
F|----------------------------------------------------|  [ x8 ]
C|----------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------|


[Play the top (highest) three strings together and just bend up the 
A string. Also, when Rich plays it, he flicks the pickup switch 
back and forth with his little finger (down on the downstroke, and 
up on the upstroke). This gives it that really ace sounding 
WOOOWWWOOWWWW sound.]
