Dolly Rocker
Syd Barrett
Opel
Standard tuning
------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes: This song starts off with some talking between a man,
who I coudl imagine is recording the song, and Syd. The song
has some odd timing and stumming, so be sure to listen along the
first run through. Most of the chords are barred, but I'm leaving
that part up to you. Have fun!
