This is the verses really, but I'm pretty sure the chorus is the same but with the
backwards (if you know what i mean). Guitar 1 strums chords Aadd9 and Cmaj7 continuously.
2 is tabbed out as being vertically simultaneous with guitar 1.
I'm not sure if this is in the right key. Maybe using a cappo? I think it might be in
time and is about 60 beats per minute.
