Chords

This is my first tab, but I'll try and make it as good as possible. A few notes before begin. You will see that I have Eb5 for a chord, I believe it is an Eb chord but I'm sure the exact progression so if you have any input on that let me know. Secondly, is an Ab chord but that can also be played, during the verse, as Absus or Ab4, play you feel sounds better. And the Db in parenthesis is in parenthesis because it's not used as a full chord just as a passing tone between the other two. So play it lightly and quickly. Intro Gb Eb5 Ab x2 Verse 1
