Nicaragua Libre (a question for Mr Chevron)

Post Sat May 16, 2009 4:28 pm

Spider says somewhere in the notes to the box set that he was drunk when he wrote this song and never expected it to see the light of day (or something like that... forgive me, I don't have the box set in front of me right now) but I quite like both the guitar playing and the vocals on this song and my (very) brief question to Mr C is: what are the basic chords to this one?

Thanks,

John C.

G // C// G D / etc

There's an A in there too, though I don't like it and, as the song progresses, you can hear me trying to eliminate it/replace it. If you can play "James Connolly (The Irish ReBEL)" you can play this.
