Chords

[Chords] It sounds best if you add a base note of G to the C chords and C to the Fmaj7. Gives a fuller sound. G chord sounds better if you play as shown (technically a G6add11 or Cmaj9) Listen to the song for strum pattern - best to give emphasis on base notes.

oh forget about the sun

he's forgotten us by now
