Chord names are listed above the tabs. I tried to get the timing on the lyrics, which came pretty close, but if the didn't the chords will give youa a general idea of how to play it. Play of the intros 4 times at the beginning of the song. They both sound good, but the second one is a little easier to play. Have fun!
