Chords
I've tabbed out this song in the chords that Ray LaMontagne actually uses in the recorded version, but
personally I transcribe the song into the key of A, which makes it easier to sing (oh, to sing like Ray)
and far easier for me to play. In A, I play the song using open chords, and until the bridge at least,
it's just easier. Played in C, I think you basically need to barre the chords. Enjoy!
