Matthew West - History

this is the first tab i posted , i couldn’t find the proper tab anywhere so i had to
watch his live video to find out how it’s really played .
this will get you started and the rest is pretty simple to ear out once you have the
chords . and the intro to the chorus may be a little off .

his youtube video can help you figure the rest out if you can’t ear it

chords :

Bm ( x24432 )

A ( 002220 )

G ( 320033 )

Em ( 022000 )
