a letter, then fret number as a # and you'll have to fill in
the "()" for yourself)Note: These are NOT chords!

The () are fill-ins. Play them softly in between.
There are supposed to be 2 guitars, a rhythm and a lead.
The lead is usually the power chords. And the rhythm is the
standard chords for full strumming sound. It sounds good if
you mix the two together (Intro and Chorus on lead and
rhythm on verses) with the CD.
