/////////////// A* and G* represent an F-barre chord (i.e. xx7655 and xx5433). Where I have the chord over the middle of a syllable (or in some cases over underscores at the end of a word), play the chord about an eighth note behind. In the section where I have the chords in between words, strum the chord twice (eighth notes). Listen to the recording. Address any questions to schizo@grex.cyberspace.org.
