Originally in G, I play in C capo 2, highest note that matters is the 1p
Chords implied, the bass just holds the 1 in the original, but easier to just let the verse chords ring

| Driven on by a | heart of | stone |
| C | F | Am |
| We could find that we’re | all | alone |
| G | C | |

Drums enter on “night”
