You can very easily play this song as C, G, C, G the
whole way through, but it is more than that, if you
listen to this song, you can hear the extra little
notes that add to the song. I wrote them out here, If
it's too difficult, just play G or C. I wrote it out
extremely specifically. The only reason I wrote it
like this was for anybody that wanted it, but you
can very easily read it just using the major chords.
