-- Slight Mod to intro --
Chord shapes used. I only typed the lyrics in the chorus with some hyphens to reflect what syllables the Fsus
accents. It doesn't mean the vocal should be extended. There are two D chord shapes listed. The open,
first position is easier to use after the C chord, while the barre shape is easier to reach after the C#7.
The tempo and volume of the outro is increased until the last verse which is arrpegiated.
