Tuning: E A D G B E
NOTE REGARDING THE CHORD CHOICES:
With choosing the chords, I tried to stay as close to the original as possible.
Most of the weirder chords in there, for example the F6/C --> Cmaj7 --> F6/C chord changes in the chorus,
are just the embellishments that she actually plays on the piano. You could just leave them out and it would
sound just as good.
*regarding the Fsus2 in the chorus:
I actually switch back and forth between Fsus2 and F on every syllable. With doing that, the focus is on the
notes G (Fsus2) and A (F), which also happen to be the melody notes.
