Note from KHuff: I have tabbed this song out to be played without the use of a Capo;
however, the song can be played with open chords by playing it Capo 3!
Simply transpose this tab down 3 half steps to get the correct chords for Capo 3!
Experimenting with different various suspensions of F and C make this song sound great on acoustic.
This tab is my first; so let me know what you think of it! Happy playing!
