Break My Body

transcribed by Adam Farmer 
Corrections very welcome.

Rhythm guitar:

plays barre chords throughout, it's not very
prominent on the record. during verse there's
the odd strum on a G chord with a few A# chords
thrown in when the lead guitar moves up a fret.
Also when the bass guitar plays that short funky
section there's a D chord behind it.

for the chorus the rhythm plays :

A     G  F    Bb      G     C       A
break my body hold my bones hold my bones
