1st the opening riff
3x
E———————-|—2-3-3-2-3-3-3-2——-
B———————-|—3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3——-|
G———————-|—2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2——-|
D—-4-2-0-0-0———|—0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0——-|
A—0————3-1—3-|————————|
E——————3—|————————|
The verses are just pretty basic chords that you should
Aready know
D
We rented a truck and a semi to go
C
Travel down the long and winding road
Bb
Look on the map I think we’ve been here before
A
Close the doors lets roll once more
This is the riff thats played over over the chorus
E———————
B———————| On the fourth pass replace the last 2 notes
G———————| with a Bb and C chord and then play the 2nd
D-0-0-0——0———| part of the 1st riff a couple of times
A——-0-2—2——|
E—————3—-/
That’s the song in a nutshell and should get you well on your way.
Enjoy.
