these chords were taken from his video that showed us how to play this song.
to get a better understanding of how he picks/strums the chords.
*CAPO on third fret
C=X32010
E=X22100
F=133211
G=355433
plucking pattern for C chord, thats just the start. i bet you guys could figure the rest
 just by looking at the video, same thing for E chord then you change it by plucking
 the E string. for the other chord F & G.  and moving up one. -__-
 hopefully this make sense. if not, when i have time i would definitely
 tab out the whole thinggg. [8
