Halfway Wrong

This is a pretty simple song. Ben chugs along playing chords shapes reminiscent of She's Just That Kind of Girl. Brian has a fun riff and plays his chords as power chords, or at least barre chords. Where you see C in parentheses it just means it's a transitional chord. You'll hear what I mean on the record.


G (3x0033) G variation thrown in on the bridge (3x0233)
C (x3x033)
D (xx0230)
