Solo on verse

Verse 2 (chords as above - sorry don't have the words to hand)

Chorus (as above)
--

Chord note for for beginners:
All chords played as normally given in any book in standard tuning in 1st 
position (ie at the bottom of the neck - which is physically the top if you're 
holding the neck upwards!). Note that Roy plays G with 4 fingers - fingering
D on the B string, which makes the chord sound nicer (you dont get the jump
from B up to G for the top two strings - if any notes are to be missed
out of a chord, better to miss the 3rd(B) than the 5th(D) in general) 
i.e.:

        ............playing D instead of open B
