Hey, this is my very FISRT "tab" basically, even though it's chords.
I love this song and have never been able to find chords for it,
so i decided to do it myself, another first.
I've never put chords to a song before on my own either...and i've been playing for
2 and a 1/2 years.
lol I don't know if it's competely right, i doubt it,
i did it by ear, but hopefully you all can comment
and tell what you think or if i should change any chords or w/e.
My name is Molly btw. I'm not registered here; Not sure if i want
to do that yet. I just wanted to submit this. Hopefully you guys enjoy!
Intro: D, A/d (i think) play it however long you want to, i couldn't get it exactly but
would say at least X2, maybe X4
