I can't say that it's 100% accurate, it is\r\npretty close though. If you spot anything wrong either send me an email, or post in the \r\ncomments and I'll try to fix it.\r\n\r\n\r\nThis song is in standard tuning with a Capo on the 3rd fret. This is how they play it.\r\nYou can remove the Capo, or move it up/down the neck to fit your vocal range.\r\n\r\n\r\nNotes: For the verse. If you listen to the song you will hear that they play two sets of\r\n6 evenly placed downstrokes on the \"G\" \"G/E\" and \"Em7\", and on the last downstroke of\r\neach set you play the \"A\" sting (5th string) open. (e.g. on the last stroke of \"G\" you \r\nwill play 300022, instead of 320022) Also, the last time you strum A7sus4 in a \r\nsequence it usually sounds good to drop your pinky and play \"-02033\" for added embellishment. \r\n\r\n\r\n          Chord Guide\r\n\r\n[ch]G[/ch]         3 2 0 0 3 3\r\n[ch]G/E[/ch]       0 2 0 0 3 3\r\n[ch]Em[/ch]        0 2 2 0 0 0\r\n[ch]Em7[/ch]       0 2 2 0 3 3\r\n[ch]C[/ch]         0 3 2 0 1 0\r\n[ch]Cadd9[/ch]     -
