However, it is not entirely correct: he uses a D chord in place #of a Bm, and an F#m chord instead of an F#. Most importantly though, he #doesn't include the riff which is, without doubt, the best bit. I should #however give Ben credit for making sense of the lyrics - something I could #not have achieved in a thousand years! # #intro/main riff: # # play for 3 bars play for one bar # # E I------------------------------I------------3--2---------I # B I------------------------------I------------3--3--2------I # G I--0h2--2----2------------2-0--I--0h2--2----0--2--2------I # D I--0h2--4h5--2h4--2p0-----2-0--I--0h2--4h5--0--0--2------I # A I---------------------3p0------I------------2--0--0------I # E I------------------------------I------------3------------I # #h = hammer on #p = pull off # #This riff pretty much takes the form of an A chord, using #the first finger to block out the top 4 strings. Obviously #the chords G->D->A conclude the fourth bar. # #Overall, this riff is a great way to combine picking with #some funky strumming. The "pull off" part labelled #can be used throughout the song during the A chord. # #The chords for the rest of the song are as follows. # #verse 1: A Scratchin' .. G Bm G->D->A I push and pull, .. A I've got ... G Bm G->D->A got horse ... F# A push and pull ... Bm D walk it like ... chorus: A I'm yours, .. G D gimme more .... (repeat x3) A I'm yours, you're mine G->D->A yeah yeah yeah (main riff) verse 2: Structure of song: riff (x2) / verse1 / chorus / riff / verse2 / chorus / solo / riff (x many)
