Rhythm intro (Paul)
It’s pretty much Fm-Gm progression. It’s pretty tricky to tab out but advice to
play it would be to down strum the chords and up strum the open notes.
On occasion Paul will barre the strings. These times can be heard pretty easily
though since there is a lot of muted strumming when he does this.
Verse 1 Rhythm (Paul)
