Chords

************************************************************************************************************** This is pieced together from existing chords/tabs of Girls by the 1975 and Boys by Charli xcx that I could find. It's the best my ears could pick out from Orla's video: Suggestions are very much welcome as I am barely an intermediate myself. Using the barr chords for most of these sound better:
e|----2----|----3----|----5----|----2----|----2----|----0----|
B|----3----|----3----|----7----|----4----|----2----|----0----|
G|----4----|----4----|----7----|----4----|----3----|----1----|
D|----4----|----5----|----7----|----4----|----4----|----2----|
A|----2----|----5----|----5----|----2----|----4----|----2----|
E|----x----|----3----|----x----|----x----|----2----|----0----|
