"Denise" by Fountains of Wayne From the album UTOPIA PARKWAY

Just a little guide to help you in the reading of this transcription. The cords F+, and F#+ are played by
playing power cords in the 8th and 9th positions respectively. The reason for the + sign is to distinguish
those cords from F# that is played in the 2nd position during the Bridge and the Chorus. The song is fun
to play, and for ultimate realism, turn the treble and middle way up on your amp to produce a great fuzzy
sound.
