Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

Be Honest ? Jason Mraz

In the video Jason´s guitar isn´t really in a common tune. If you want to play along
with the video;
the closest I got to his tune is by tuning the guitar to: Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb @446Hz.
Please note the tabs/chords
below don't have the E MajorE string dropped to D!

Enjoy playing!
