Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
you can do the whole song in power-chords (playing only the 3 low strings (E A D),
at least i prefer it that way,
and if you are not too lazy tune your guitar to Drop D and play the Dms
as a power chord, the D chord sounds better 1 octave down (low D string than 5 on the A string)
Opening (is only on the high e and B strings):

Hold your Breath and count to ten, just count to ten

I'm gonna make it rain, so ring the Bell

Don't Be A casualty, cut the cord
