His best song in my opinion, technically it doesn't really have any chords since it's just two guitars playing
separate melody lines in counterpoint, but that makes it hard to play with one guitarist so these chords
should sound right instead.
Like most Mac DeMarco songs it's tuned a quarter-step down
