R#3 (1 mes.) R#2 (1 mes.) R#1 (2 mes.)
Do you think that you could ever put it on the line?

I strongly recommend listening to the actual song for the timing and
how long to play each riff. The rhythm is simple, but the timing of
the lyrics can be confusing. I indicated where the down beat of a
phrase was with the placement of the "R#1", "R#2", etc. with respect
to the lyrics. I hope this helps. Sweet song by the way, fun to play.
Open to suggestions/adjustments.
Enjoy! =)
