Northcote
Knock on my door
Matt flourishes alot of A and B chords with their relevant 7th's which makes it sound more challenging than
it is. I have not written out the outro as it is mainly a repetition of the chords from the song and you
wouldn't really ever play much beyond the last outro.

It’s been a long time since we went out
B A E B B7 B
Dancing on new years eve alone in the crowd

Can’t watch the movies or listen to that radio
