Note about time: throughout the song usually the C is a short note before the G (except for most of the
chorus), if you're strumming just a strum down before the G. It's a bit more complicated with the picking
pattern, but try to play it with the song and follow the times. The last line of the chorus ("Can't take it
slow cause you and I are pushin time") has a lot of chords that are played in quick succession: if you're
picking just the base note or a quick down strum if you're strumming.
