'Whatever You Want' by Status Quo - Guitar Tutorial

            Status Quo : Whatever you want
==============================
For the intro you need to tune your axe drop-D (from low to high :
D-A-D-G-B-e), but further in the song you don't need that tuning anymore,
in fact, it makes it harder... So I've written the intro in drop-D and the
rest in regular tuning.
