SHE WILL HAVE HER WAY

(Neil Finn)

NOTES: It's one of those rare times that Neil is using an open 
tuning. In this case, the tuning is Open C, which, from top string 
to bottom, goes: C-G-C-G-C-E.

Of course, you don't have to use the tuning if you don't want to 
-- you can just play the chords the way they're named (and don't 
pay attention to the fingerings mentioned at the bottom). But hey, 
if you haven't already, you owe yourself the experience of playing 
in an alternate tuning. *grin*
