Sara Bareilles - Free Ride
(Capo 4th Fret - Key is B major)
Other tab sounds/looks inaccurate, I think this might
be better.
If you want extension, just make sure G (heard as B)
is in each chord, and it'll sound closer to what
she plays on ukulele. Ex. D -> Dadd4, F -> Fadd2, etc.
She also plays Gadd4 instead of G, but enough of that.
Last note is that chords with parentheses around them
are just continuations (tried to match it up with her
timing, so it's not perfect.)
