Bruce Cockburn Solo: "If I Had a Rocket Launcher"

In 1984, Bruce Cockburn scored an unlikely pop hit with "If I Had a Rocket Launcher," which describes the Canadian singer-songwriter's fantasies of violent retribution following a visit to a Guatemalan refugee camp that was regularly shelled by government helicopters. Here he plays a solo acoustic version. Learn it note for not using the notation in AG's September/October 2019 issue; performances notes are available at acousticguitar.com.
