version 3
Capo: 2nd fret
Tuning: Standard Capo: 2nd fret Acoustic Guitar
NOTE: Alternatively you could play it without a capo,
and just add 2 to every number at play it using your index
finger, muting the rest of the strings.
The chords used in the song are:
F#m D A E
e|---------------------------------------------(0)-----|
B|-------(0)----------(0)----------(0)---------(0)-----|
G|--------0-----------(0)-----------4-----------2------|
D|--------2------------2------------5-----------4------|
A|--------2------------3------------5-----------5------|
E|-------(0)-----------3-----------(0)----------0------|
The (0) are notes that are played during the chords occasionally
throughout the song in different places each time.
depending on how you play the song depends on where
you play these (0).
And here is the strumming pattern. The F#m's are unique and end differently
then every other chord. Only change positions on the F#m's.

E|------------------------------------------------------|
The chords are strummed in either an alternate or a down
strumming pattern. It depends on your preference.
Accents are played depending your preference.
The reason I say preference is because some
aspects of the song varies between different players
of the song.
Above are what I play the accents as.
Each time a chord is played, it is played 16 times.
