A guitar student of mine asked me to teach her this song. I have only found a piano tab
for it, so here is what I have come up with to transcribe it for acoustic guitar. Capo
on 4 if you wish to play along with the Common Kings recording. It’s a piano song and
the chords are not exact. I have also tried to keep it as simple as possible for 
beginner guitarists.
