Just a thought: I have made the chords as primary barre chords, but I've seen a video 
in the first verse Dan plays the open D chord while playing
the C and Bb acting as bass lines on the 5th string, although on the next verse he then 
primary barre chords. Whichever version shouldn't
make too much of a difference, but I think it's cool to have that variation with open 
primary barre chords.
I altered some of the lyrics from the booklet just 'cause the song says otherwise.

It's 1/2 step down tuning on the album version, but I've tried transcribing some live 
and it's played in standard. It's up to you to decide which one you like, hence why I have 
not selected a specific tuning. Anyway, here's the song.

All chords are primary barre chords except when stated otherwise (e.g. "Bm(2)" is my way 
saying that this is a secondary barre chord)

D (xx0232@1)             C (x32010@1)B (x2444x@1)Bb (x1333x@1)          GAmerican (320003@1)Apparel had a special on khaki
