BPM 156 Intro - 2 x 3 then 2, start verse by playing 1 staccato then sing 'and i' 1&(and)2(i) snare on 3 and with give on 1 of first bar of verse Second time there are no extra 2 notes - and just offbeat snare - sing straight after last chord hit Instrumental bit - coming back in play double hit with snare on the G on the 'and i'
[Intro] Bm (1 triplet) Bsus2 (1 triplet + 2 beats) G (then think GMaj7) - 2 triplets then 2 beats - the 'and id' comes in the last beat of 2 so on the &2 of 1 2 3 1&2 Play G1 G2 G3 G1+Snare (stop) then sing 'and id' with no guitar Important that the strings drone lots - open strings also works as well in places
