OK so Idunno, I think it's close enough
The G's may be G7th's, but I'm tired of making that listening hard face, and I don't 
if it's 7 &amp; or not anymore
This is just the way I think Raymond is playing it...there are plenty of other ways to 
it...
You can play F7 like this (131211)and G7(320001)
Or u could play it in B in standard tuning
