I Believe this is 100% correct.
The Lyrics do not match the tempo, they are just there as prompts.
The chord shapes are all fingerpicked in differnt styles throughtout the song so
listening to the song before playing will help alot.
F-Am-Em-C are repeated throught in different variations
Please let me know if you spot any mistakes.

Enjoy.
