Chords

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: pewpewguitar (Sean Andrea) Email: [email protected] OK this is my first tab, not sure how the whole template works exactly, but I'll give it shot. I just wanted to figure this song out for myself because it wasn't on here, but now that have I figured I might as well share. Also, I'm not sure how on earth you get the chord diagrams to show up, so I'll just leave it to you to figure out the chords, pretty easy though. **QUICK NOTE** There's a few parts in this song where he puts his hand up to the 10th and plays the strings kind of muted, not sure what it's called but for the sake of here I'll just say (10th muffled) mmk? Anyways, lissen' to the song for timing and strumming patterns and whatnot.
So for the first verse you pick these notes, just a Em chord and a G chord. Play 2x for intro.
        Am                                   C
