hey , this is a great song , very simple and easy . tuning is standard .
i tried to be accurate with chord placement but figure out exact
timing by listening to the song . all chords should be standard bar
chords . if you prefer using open chords just plug in “transpose
down a half step” at the top , capo the first fret , and then play
all chords relative to the capo . where it says “palm mute” strum
the chord once and immediately mute all strings . here it goes .
