Focus on the strumming more than the timing, I'd say. The timing will come once you've got the strum down and, until then, whenever you play it, just say you've got punk spirit and you don't need to follow anybody's timing. I don't focus on it too much with this song, so the chord placements might not be wholly accurate, but they'll give you a good idea. Playing along with the recording (or the video below) will help a lot. Tuning: Standard Capo: None Video: Here's a video of Amy playing this song acoustically. Should be a godsend, if you're having trouble with timing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdSBuG1C4Hk Verse chords: A: 577655 B: 799877 D: 022100 (0=10th, 2=12th, 1=11th) Chorus chords: A: 577655 D: x57775 E: x79997 Intro: A B D A (x2) See that (A)girl over (B)there she's gonna (D)give me the (A)cold shoulder (A B D A) She may be (A)straight to(B)night but last (D)night she (A)let me hold (A)her (B D A) It took A (A)little bit of (B)faith and A (D)lot of (A)patience (A B D A) I got (A)all night (B)long and (D)no reser(A)vations (A B D A) (A)Oh (D)yeah (E)al(D A)right The (A)Alabama (B)kids are coming (D)over to(A)night (A B D A) They're gonna (A)drive into (B)Georgia and (D)rock us (A)right (A B D A) They say the (A)ring in the tree shows A (D)long line of (A)passion (B D A) From the (A)cotton (B)fields to the (D)emanci(A)pation (A B D A) (A)Oh (D)yeah (E)al(D A)right (A)Baby are you gonna, (D)baby are you gonna (E)Baby, are you gonna (D)treat me (A)right?
