Now, the eagle eyed folks out there will have noticed that there's an F major and a D minor chord in the chart, but not the tab. Well, that's because I assumed that you folks at home don't have a capo - if this is the case, go get one, they're cool. Anyways, this song is actually played with the capo on fret 7, in which case the order of chords is something like this: Intro/Verse/Chorus: C G F G Pre-Chorus: Am Em G Pre-Verse: C G F Dm G Play around with this song, have some fun, play Cadd9 instead of C a few times, add a Dsus4 in during the long Ds, whatever. Peace, love, and chocolate.
