Key of D (Capo 2)

INTRO - This song starts out with the cowbell ticking away, so we start by ping the body of the guitar on the pickguard to
get a similar sound (TAP). If you hold the pick between thumb and index finger and leave the other three sticking out, you
may be able to continue the cowbell effect as you pick/strum the intro part. I have written in the chord fingering to hold
onto while emphasizing the melodic INTRO MOTIF with the pick on the up and down strokes as needed.

VERSES - In the verses, it's primarily bass and drums, so we emphasize the bass strings, using the same strumming pattern
from the intro, and trying to maintain an Off-Beat string-muting tap.

CHORUS - The chorus is full-out chords. The very last chorus finishes with several of the Intro Motifs in a row until the
line that starts with A minor.
