Guns N Roses - Knocking On Heavens Door

This is the picking at the very beginning of the song. The picking varies
Throughout, and you should do whatever feels best instead of trying to
Restrict yourself to how it sounds on record. GN'R is constantly mutating
This song in concert anyway (even doing it with a reggae beat).

It's getting dark, too dark to see
G5 D C
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Chorus (if you're really concerned about playing it like the
CD, listen to it for rhythm. But this song has been done by so
many people so differently that you might as well give it your own
feel.)

Additional lyrics:
Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That cold black cloud is comin' down
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Basically there are lots of knockin' on heaven's doors throughout the rest
