every other beat*
** Martin sometimes hammers on the B String 3rd Fret after the A Chord (middle finger)**
*** If you've played Martin's music before, you'll get the idea....he's constantly
out his Bass lines
and basic hammer on and pull offs from the chords provided.***

The ground would shake all understanding now

As I was so smitten with her suede
A
It went from screamin oh baby!!

Her fine print swiftly stole away
D A
I’ll see you in the next life baby namaste'

_______
A
Thought I knew ya

And find a hole in your soul

I thought I knew ya

Like I had a direct line

to some power greater than myself
