Preface:
This chord file is based on on the other tab for this song found on the site. I just added the 
lyrics and placed the chords where my ear tells me they should go. Of course my ears aren't 
perfect and neither is this file, but it should help a lot!
I indicate next to the chords whether they should be played hi or low. It should be pretty 
obvious from listening to the song though.
