Version 1The first version posted was great. Here is the whole song with lyrics. Standard tuning; Capo on 3rd fret. Updated minor issues with spelling and chords. Still not perfect but enjoy! This one is pretty easy; just add soul! The "hey yo hey yo hey yo hey yo" section was replaced with an improvised solo here but add back in if you prefer. Additional Notes: 1) Where you place the capo is sometimes different for each individual's voice. I know that is common sense to most, but I had some comments that I needed to respond to! Thanks! 2) I play this version of the song acoustically.
