Here is a song one of my friends wrote.
It's originally played with a capo on the 8th fret and with the chords D Bm Em A,
but it's hard to play with large fingers and a small fretboard.
Just listen to the video for the strumming pattern. The strumming while singing is
slower. Video link down below.
Capo 3
Intro: G Em Am D (2x)
VERSE 1:

Seeing you there, it was so unpredictable.

CHORUS 1:
G Em
Boy, you make me dance; dance and sing.
Am D
Yeah, you make me laugh at everything.
G Em
The sound of your voice; the look in your eyes,
Am D
Make me wait for the morning sun to rise
G Em
You're the first that is on my mind

and the last thing as I close my eyes.

All I can say to you is La La La.
