Tuning: E A D G B E

No capo – Key: Gm It might look like there a lot of chords and well... there are. But fret not! Sara, who is in my opinion a great songwriter, does a scale upward from G to F# (which you might see by the bass notes). It's really important if you wanna replicate what she does on piano, but it's not necessary if you find it too difficult. Just play the plain chords.
