Good leasson mate n now your singing was good thanks mate.! BTW LOVE THIS SONG
I’ve been searching the internet long and hard to find out what chord changes are at the end of the chorus to no avail. Thanks to your video, I have found that it’s not really a chord change per se, but a manipulation of the D chord. That alone is enough to earn my like. Now, if I can just perfect that riff…
