Standard Tuning Capo 3
NC - No Chord (Silence)
Chords in parentheses are optional(its in the song), but it makes it harder to play and 
sing at the same time (at least for me anyway!), played on the upbeat of 7 of the 
previous chord for a beat and a half. I think everythings right and I hope this helps!
 Goh       Em   GohEm
