The Indie Queens are Waiting - Dan Mangan

The other tab for this is quite good, but one chord was wrong,
and the bridge wasn't quite right.

The whole song should be played with a down-strum
with the index-fingernail on the off-beat
instead of finger-picking the off-beat.

If you are having trouble with the fast picking part,
then you could just leave it out, and play it like this.
