Standard tuning (EADGBE) Capo on 5th Fret
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chords used: C, Am, Em, F, G6, Dm
I posted this tab well before the studio version was released so it really is for
the acoustic guitar. But I can't see why it wouldn't sound great on the electric
too. But if you are using an acoustic guitar, try experimenting with some hammer-on's below.
Use your middle finger to hammer on the C chord.
Use your middle and ring fingers to hammer on the Am chord.
Use your ring finger to hammer on the Em chord (If you use middle & ring)
Use your middle finger to hammer on the F chord.
Use your index finger to hammer on the Dm chord.
