SHORT TV SHOW CDD ITS VERB ON
PLEASE NOTE:
This tab is specifically the shorter arrangement of the
song as used in the show's opening credit sequence.
The closing theme music is the same as the opening one,
except for a very clumsily done edit where the 2nd line
of the verse was deleted to fit the shorter timing of
the TV end credits.
To hear the theme tune, copy and paste this link:
Am = x02210 C = x32010 A7 = x02020
