Born To Be Wild

• E5

The cults splendid cover of Steppenwolfs born to be wild. There are 2 guitars playing chords on parts of
this track, I have tried to do them both. The ugly looking E5 C#5/E D5/E is simply a 12 bar in E, played
with an open E string, you could just play and E5 power chord all the way through. Please rate/ comment 

   E5 = E string 0pen
        A string 2nd fret

C#5/E = E string open
        A string 4th fret

 D5/E = E string open
        A string 5th fret
