Inspiration: "Shine a Light"

"Shine a Light" is probably my favorite Rolling Stones song.



If you don't play the piano, I think it's worth it to learn four basic chords in C: C major, G major, A minor, and F major, so you can play this song - albeit just simply pounding on piano chords - to your heart's content.



You're going to have to figure out the exact order and rhythm of these chords, either by listening to the song (over and over!) or by using Google for some official/unofficial sheet music.
