Chords
This is a basic version to play around with. I like to finger pick the verses and strum the chorus.
I found a few on here that didnt sound right to me, so did my own by listening to the song over and over.
If you play the Cadd9, G and Em with both fingers on the E and B string I think it sounds more better.
