It's my first submission here, feedback is always appreciated! 
I noticed that the one existing tab for this song uses some awkward chords, so
I thought I'd post how I play. It feels more natural (to me) to use a capo and
open chords, especially since this is a pretty common feature to all other RAA
songs. Enjoy!
