And I don't care.

(The lead chords change slightly from the lyrics part and must be played in time)

lead     G C Bb D C D   (see note at bottom of this page)

LEAD note: When I play this song's lead this is how I play it. 
These notes are walking up to the next chord.  The last C and D goes back to just the rhythm.
Must be played in time so practice with the recording.
