Capo 3
This is meant to be a simpler way to play a highly complex song. Not all the chords may sound 100%
true to the record, but that was not my goal in this tab. Some of the chords may look more difficult
at first for beginners, but most of them are actually a lot easier to play than they look. Authors, please
refrain from complexifying any part of the song if you can help it. I'm 100% open to changes but want to
keep this simple. There are far more accurate tabs if that is something you're looking for. Thank you,
and I hope you enjoy!
