Based on a recently released video, there is another way that The Dunwells
play this song. I think it sounds a little bit better, but it requires a
capo. Also, it becomes much harder do the fills with the Dsus chords. Use
your best judgement.

One final note: sometimes when Joe is playing the Fmaj7 chord, he will do
this nifty little fill:

Use it at your leisure if you're playing with a capo. Without further ado,
here's the actual song.

Well down your tools and play the game

Cause I could be a king

I could be some writing on the wall

A G
I could be a piece of artwork fading into the sun
