Cats and Dogs - You Am I Ahh, the 60s never died, they just went and got indie cred (and a movie soundtrack). The more jangly you can get your sound, the better. main riff play this loud and loose. If it isn't obvious from the tab, it's just an E barre chord being slid around, with a quick A7 barre.
