The other chord chart is fraught with wrong lyrics, wrong chords, and (most importantly) wrong chord placement.
This, hopefully, will be easier to read and understand, as well as play along to. Really underrated song by a
mostly underrated band. Mon the Fratellis! Really interesting mix of major and minor chords of the same root in
this song.
