Chvrches - We Sink
I love this band, and wanted to play some of their stuff, so I watched a
lot of Youtube videos and this is what I came up with. This is pretty basic,
but it stays the most true to what they do. If you want to kind of make
it your own thing as an "acoustic" version, feel free to use variation.
Also; make not of the way I'm doing these chords-- They should be played
in drop D.
