- Key Signature: A Major - 3 sharps (F#, C#, G#)
- Time Signature: 4/4 - Four quarter-note beats per measure
- Tempo: Medium Rock
- Metronome: q = 112
- Voice Range: E4 - A5
- Skill Level (Guitarist): Beginner - entails a fair knowledge of open chords. The alternative F#m displayed in the charts requires a mini-barre but is fairly easy to play.
- Choices: This song can be played using normal chords or power chords which simply play the bottom 3 notes of the normal chords - all of which are barre chords except for A major which is played in the open position... see chord charts above.
- Electric⚡: This song is easy and fun to play especially if you have an electric guitar with access to distortion - and lots of it! If you are playing with distortion, it's best to use power chords for a cleaner sound - fewer strings and less chaos... enjoy.
