So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies

NOTE: At the end of each C C/B Am C/G F chord progression, there
is a small but important extra note. While fingering the F chord
(1 3 3 2 1 1), quickly hammer on and then pull off the sus note
(1 3 3 3 1 1). Do this twice each time. Listen to the record to
get a better idea of what I mean.
