Chords with lyrics
Surrounded

NOTES: The first verse and first chorus are supported by piano only.
The guitar chords approximate the sound. They might not be "right,"
but they're close.
?The chorus has lots of time signature changes which I've tried to
notate. There are also chord embellishments in the chorus which I've left out
in order to focus on timing.

Fell in love with a girl who's found love before

(My chord charts are intended to show how, as a rhythm guitarist,
I play songs. I don't claim they are the "right" way. They are not
tabs, which notate precisely how a song was played on a recording.)
