Johnny plays this song a hell of a lot different but this sounds kinda like it. It can
played on either acoustic or electric. I personaly prefer electric (Live In Buffalo July
2004) but you can play it on acoustic (Hold Me Up, which was the original version)if you want to.
The last time I wrote this, I totally butchered it! I forgot the 2nd verse, it was
unorganized, and it just totally sucked! I play it different now but this way sounds alright
Oh and I'm sure you'll be happy that I put the 2nd verse in this time :-p
Tuning: half step down
it doesn't sound the same as the recording but if you tune it half step down it will be
the same key!
