Alot of the tabs for this song are complicated, but the song can be played using only four chords. They are all strummed for two quarter notes, assuming it is 4/4 time signature. It is based around the key of G. Just standard tuning, so it's not too complicated. It is the same progression throughout the whole song. G C Em D Hi, my name is Bob, and I approve this message...
