Description
Notes From John
BPM = 142. Open E, D, A and G chords with marked down and up strokes run from the first bar, with no capo. Each chorus answers “You better duck” with offbeat B and A strums between rests. The last bar strums an open E into a fermata.
For the player
The 1981 recording has no strum guitar, so John wrote this part to follow the song’s basic rhythm. Stick to the marked down and up strokes so the open chords keep an even pulse. Stay under the vocal by strumming lighter in the verses and saving the weight for the chorus hits. Let the strings ring through the E to D changes, but stop them dead in the chorus rests. At BPM = 142 the job is the feel.
