There may be errors, but I was unhappy with the current selection of chords for this song, so I set out to chord it myself, for an acoustic guitar. Please send me a message if you have corrections or even if you just want to say you liked or hated it. Or even if you were ambivalent to it! I love hearing from you guys.
