Subject: CRD: Talk of the Town (The Pretenders)

			    TALK OF THE TOWN
			    (The Pretenders)

[Disclaimer: This is my interpretation of this song.  I worked it out
from the CD and do not have the sheet music if it even exists -- LM.]

(Thanks to Clark Chang for the lyrics.)

The intro is a picked progression (an arpeggio) of the following two
chords.  (The "h" means hammer on.)  

   G       Csus2 (repeat 4 times)
e              3
b               3
g      0      0  0
d            2
a     2   2h3
E  2h3
