Tuning: E A D G B E
Notes for beginner/intermediate players.
The whole song is based around E shaped barre chords.
F on the first, G on the third fret, Am on the 5th (obviously Em shape), C on the 8th.
When Angie McMahon plays it she doesn't barre across the whole fret,
just the bottom part and uses her thumb to fret the E-string which is why her fingering looks different.
