This song is really nice and chordy and rather fun to play around a campfire or 
something like that. It's not the most popular song she's written but I really 
enjoy it quite a lot. SO MANY FEELS. Anyway.

Capo 3, in D# maj. You're going to have to know some basic finger-picking to play 
this song. If you really want to, you can use the flick and slap technique, which 
is very nicely explained here:

I feel it adds a good percussive touch, but it's not necessary. Other than that, 
though, this song only has a few changes that you'll get used to quickly with a 
bit of practice.

A few more notes, there are little hammer-ons she does on C, Am, and G during the 
verses. If you listen to the song they're rather prominent. All you've got to do 
is unfret that specific string (for C and A it's the D string and for G it's the A 
string) and hammer back on in eighth notes. Another thing, during the verses 
there's this little chromatic line that moves up a fret from the G chord to the G# 
note, then rests on Am. All you have to do is move your finger up the E string 
from fret 3 to fret 4 on beats 1 and 3 before making the switch.
