So I was looking for a tab for this '80s one-hit wonder classic and the one that involves the capo on the 3rd fret just didn't sound right no matter how I strummed it. So I thought I would make my own acoustic version. The way that I set it up is a great way for some beginners to practice there barre chords. But it also sounds fine with the regular chords as well, but I prefer the barre chord version myself.If you have trouble with the tab, just listen to the song and it make give you some clarity. And once you have made your final judgement on the tab, please rate.
