View Guitar Chords for Schools out - chords ver. 1
Schools Out by: Alice Cooper This song isn’t hard to play but is very cool given that it is in three different keys; the chorus sections are of different length and end with different chords, and there is a bridge section leading into another bridge section. These guys threw out the formula and created a masterpiece, here.
