A note on timing: you can absolutely play the triplets as triplets, but they're not actually triplets. The
first note is a hair longer, and the high note a hair later. The difference is so small thought that I doubt
anyone will notice ;)

F C Dsus2 (my cheat version)
NB: not every line in the chorus is like this, I'm just too lazy to type out every single strumming pattern.
This is the basic pattern, they change it up and so can you! You can use either version of Dsus2, they both
sound good. Theoretically you could play open lower E string for my cheat Dsus2, but imo it sounds bad.
