Tuning: Standard Capo: 2 Notes: Pretty simple song - but a couple notes here: I have given two versions for the C chord, as I thought it best to use different arrangements for different parts of the song. For the D chord, I use my thumb for the low F#. If this is too difficult, just skip the thumb part. When playing Cv1, hammer-on the E on the fourth string. Also hammer-on this note when playing the Cv2 in the last line of the chorus. Chords: G: 3 2 0 0 3 3 Csus9: x 3 2 0 3 3 Cv1: x 3 2 0 1 3 Cv2: 3 3 2 0 1 0 D: 2 0 0 2 3 2 Em: 0 2 2 0 0 0
