This is by ear so any adjustments let me know, though it's a pretty easy song.
Tuning: Standard
Chords:
Am7: 575555

*I've included the riff he plays during the verses. For simplicity sake it's broken down into three
sections which I will notate in the lyrics. There are some alterations made based on syllables so
section 3 is played differently throughout the verses but you'll get the idea.*
