hey , so there are a few good tabs up already for this song . but for those of you who
to play along to the record , this version works! this isn’t the way taylor plays it live ,
it’s the way she plays it in the music video! i had a few corrections on the others too!
chord used :
C x32010
Am x02210
F x33211 *
G 320033
Em 022000

* this is the way taylor plays it in the video . just bar the 1st & 2nd strings and place
2nd finger on the 3rd string , 2nd fret . then place your 3rd and 4th fingers on the 4th
5th strings , 3rd fret! you could play a regular F though!

tuning : standard ( no capo! )

this is the picking at the beggining , you could just play the chords!
