Capo 3 to play these chords along with the official lyric video linked above.
The chord progressions throughout the verses and choruses follow a similar rhythm to the tab I have
included for the intro.
NOTE: In his Subtract Sundays video for this song, Ed appears to be playing Am7 in the chorus, but
it sounds like a straight Am in the official videos.
