The "hey yo hey yo hey yo hey yo" section was replaced with an
improvised solo here but add back in if you prefer.
Additional Notes:
1) Where you place the capo is sometimes different for each individual's voice.
I know that is common sense to most, but I had some comments that I needed to respond to! Thanks!
2) I play this version of the song acoustically.
