==================================================================================================
Song: Amy's Song
Artist: Switchfoot
Album: New Way to Be Human
==================================================================================================
The second chord of the intro might be G/f# or D/F# cuz the chord is 
not very clear in the original song, but personally I think G sounds better.
==================================================================================================
