I will stick to capo 4 for this tab. The chord nomenclature is fairly irrelevant, just stick to the the tab
for each part and use the chords as guidance for your vocals.

Chords and frets are relative to capo

t = thumb
m = middlefinger
p = pointer

I will note down my personal finger picking here and there, feel free to use them as guidance.
