Chords
Note: This tab is based on the acoustic version for which there is an official music video.
I prefer the open E chord sound in this version over the capo on the 4th fret (although it is a bit more
tiring to play). (Capo on the 2nd fret also works pretty well. Try -2)
The rhythm during the verses is a bit tricky, with the chords changing on the 1st, the "and" of 2, and
the 4th beats.
Chord notes: Esus/F# is 202200.
F#m7 and G#m7 sounds better without the highest two strings, so F#m7 (2422xx) G#m7 (4644xx).
During the chorus, the high open E is added to C#m (x46650) also the A chord sounds like an Asus but I didn't
write it below for simplicity. A during the chorus sounds good played 577600 or 002200.
