Capo: 2
Tuning: E A D G B E
Let me start this by saying this is the first I've ever made. It's probably not the best, or anywhere near it,
but it's a song that I've wanted to learn myself for a while now.
Obviously most of these aren't the actual chord names. I don't know if these chords exist under a different
name, but as far as I checked they don't. This was the easiest way for me to organize them.
I can't really include a strumming pattern as the song changes it very often,
but if you listen to the actual song a few times it should come naturally.
If you want it to sound more like the original, you can play (what I called O+ chords) before each transition
to the next chord. (specifically G and Cmaj7) After you listen to the song you'll know what I mean.
Feedback is appreciated.
