Note: Just strum one time for every line. For this part, there are a
few chords that are almost the same sound. So, at the end I use
this one.
Bridge:
Dsus46
And what can it possibly be?
Dsus46
Oh what could it possibly be?
Dsus46
Oh what could it possibly be?
Dsus46
And what can it possibly be?
Note: This part sounds the same as the chorus but only more harmonic.
So for acoustic guitar just play the chorus’s chords & another
guitar just play this tab. Maybe I may missed out some plucks
because Chris voice is louder than the electric guitar, plus the
drums banging around. So, sorry if there is something that I left
out here.
