PSA (BAD DAY)
Chords by: Mark Bettis (JJY515@mgvax.ulst.ac.uk)
Notes:
Verse: The F C Bb hammer on the chords you can do the Peter buck
jangles using these chord shapes but he goes back to F from Bb before
Beginning the next F C Bb progression.

section, the Bb's do go jangle back to F before beginning the next F C Bb
phrase

this is pretty straight forward
the part after this last part is a touch in the background, but its just two
climbs and descents along the G string that mirrors and or is just off the
vocals by a beat or so
the other part that I have to offer is the little bit I think separates
the chorus from the third verse, or there abouts
it seems to be just a veriation of the F chord
