Chords
from the 2016 album Please Be Honest
note: regarding the Am chord in the Chorus section, I was unsure if this was an Am or if it should
remain on the C chord. I think maybe on the recording one guitar plays Am and another stays on the C
which creates a small moment of uncertainty. Have a listen and play what sounds best to your ear.
