This tab lays out the chords to the acoustic version that Claudio plays, (e.g. paste studios on youtube) it is slightly different in composition to the original. The chords in this song are all arpeggiated with finger picking, refer to the paste studios video to hear the pattern. Note a few helpful tips, The Dmaj7 should be played by moving the root note of the D (barre chord) to the Db while the other fingers remain where they are from the previous D chord + neglect to play the high e string or it wont be Dmaj7. All chords are barre chords with the exception of all Em chords and the A in the bridge in the following progression - D-Dmaj7-Bm-(A) [Introduction] Bm G Em G A [Verse 1]
