Tabbed by DJ 7th May 20189
These chords are intended to be played fingerpicking,
not strummed. The thumb picks the bass notes first,
then pluck the rest of the chord with index, middle
and ring fingers together, with a swing feel.
Hammer-on the C note of the G4 chords from the
open B string.
I would suggest using the voicings in the text
column numbers below.

=====================================================
For the GUITAR chord box diagrams to match my
suggested choices you need to manually select the
following choice of options by clicking on the
forward/backward arrows below fifteen of the diagrams
Am7 Bm7/A G/F Fmaj7
<25 of 46> <23 of 34> <5 of 13> <8 of 19>
Em7/D Dm7 D/E
<3 of 16> <2 of 36> <4 of 25>
C/D D/G Dadd4 G G4
<2 of 11> <4 of 13> <6 of 11> <9 of 27> <19 of 20>
D G/B A/C#
<3 of 18> <10 of 21> <7 of 20>
The remaining chord boxes can be the default first
option and don't need any reselecting. As long as you
are logged into your account, these choices will be
saved automatically for every time you view this tab
