This is my first time writing a tab/chords so I hope it's helpful! I couldn't find a 
version of this song online that sounded correct when I tried to play it, so I did this one 
by ear.
Please let me know if you have suggestions for improving!
Not sure how to describe the strumming pattern, but if you play along with the track,
you can pick it up by ear too, since it's in the same key as the original.
Thanks and hope you enjoy playing =)
