FINE TUNING:
The original album track is slightly sharp.
To match the recording use a chromatic tuner and
tune all your strings up approx. +10 cents above
standard tuning.
Alternatively, search out a live video version
that's more likely to be in standard pitch.
I would suggest using the voicings in the text
column numbers below.

The Cat in the Hat came back,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
Wreaked a lot of havoc on the way,

But to dream the sidewinder sleeps on his back

=====================================================
For the chord box diagrams to better match my
suggested choices you need to manually select
the following options by clicking on the
forward/backward arrows beneath each diagram
D/F# <3 of 20> Cadd9 <2 of 10>
G <2 of 27> G/B <2 of 21>
All the other chord boxes should be the default
first option and don't need reselecting
