This one moves pretty quickly. The chord changes come fast and it takes some practice
to move thru them without having to think about it. It's consistent thru the whole song
so that helps develop the patterns.
The main progression is G Em D G but it starts at the ends of phrases and wraps back to
to the next line. Best thing to do is play it in time and let the lyrics fall where
they will.
Standard tuning, No capo.
Verse:
She was striking[G] like a [Em]Viking [D]in the night[G]

I don't be[C]lieve in true [G]love
[C]Maybe it was just my [D]time
