The Police And The Private ver3 Chords - Metric






After finding the correct chords, which were mostly barchords, I fiddled around 
with some chords and came to this easier solution. By having a capo on the guitar 
you can also change the key like I like to, as the song is 
too deep for my singing voice. Hope the chords are all good.
