Hey everybody, i saw a few sets of chords for this song, but i found that you can use 
easier chords if you just capo it at the second fret. All chords are relative to the capo.

Note: the Bm chord in the verse is optional. It is played by the piano to lead into the 
A chord.

Basic Chord Changes:

Verse - A D Bm A F#m A E

Chorus - D A F#m E (x2)

Bridge and Ending don't really follow a pattern
