So I listed the chords Nanna plays(she doesn't actually come in until the chorus)
after this so if you just want the chords and lyrics, scroll past raggi's part
[INTRO AND VERSE]
Guitar 1 (Raggi):
Note: Someone was kind of confused with my previous version of the tab so I'll just mention that there's
sort of just a natural hammer-on on the B string when you change chord shapes. So
for example on the Dm, you should hear that when you hammer on to the 3rd fret

It's the same chords as the intro/verse except you're plucking the open strings like in the chorus
(Or just kind of alternating between the bass note then rest of the notes of the chord)
