This is definitely not 100% accurate but it should help and this is really how I 
play the song just by myself on guitar if I'm not playing along with the song but 
I'll update the tab once a studio version is released for a more accurate tab!

Links to where the song was learnt from:

If you see a G7 in the chorus then that can be played as an F (on lower strings) as seen in the 
first link when Drake plays guitar in the chorus.

Corrections would be really helpful and appreciated!
