Chords with lyrics
I based this mostly off of this acoustic version: https://www.youtube.com/watch v=L05DH-MvPeA She plays it in open D MajorD tuning, using single notes in the verses, power chords in de chorus and full chords (major, even when it's awkward) for the outro. I put the minor chords where I thought they sounded alright and prefer to play in drop D MajorD but that's just my prerogative, live your own life! The chords are the same for the first verse/chorus/interlude-thing as they are for the second, with the exception of the E MajorE chord between two choruses.
