I guarantee nothing!
I've tabbed this song not from great study of the Chiefs but to make it straightforward
play without losing the rock vibe. The chorus in particular can be made simple with a
rhythmic thrumming. Maybe Simon Rix does fly up and down the neck playing elaborate
(looks great!) but this is something I can remember...
