Chords

this is one of my favorite songs, thank you to whoever requested it! D C D F D C B Bb i switch to a-root powerchords because in the recording the notes are an octave up.

one last thing, the rhythms in the chorus are kind of hard to understand with just chords, so i tabbed it out:
e|--------------------------|
B|--------------------------|
G|-5-------------5-5-5/7-7--|
D|-5--1--0-1-0---5-5-5/7-7--|
A|-3--1--0-1-0---3-3-3/5-5--|
E|----1--0-1-0--------------|
