Here are the chords to 'Perfect Storm' by Sam Tsui. This song just came out today
and was written by Sam alongside his newly-wed husband, Casey Breves :)
There is some syncopation between the vocal melody and chords during the verses but
just listen to the song as you play and remember practice makes perfect.
There is also an acapella section at the end where no chords are played, but
if you don't feel like doing that, you can still play the chords as normal :)
