        Yeh,
                Good page! I'm especially keen on the your chord pages. I
spend hoursq myself trying to suss out the chords. I stumbled on the
Acqiuesce chord structure, which, up until the chorus is exactly the same as
SUPERSONIC.

        F#           Eminor  f#      Eminor      A       B
        I don't know what it is that makes me   feel     alive    
etc.
