Chords with lyrics

Song: On My Own
Album: Flicker
Key: G+G major

Tabbed by: Matty Sievers
Intro and verse is every chord for two bars, Chorus is G+G and C majorC for two bars then E minorEm and D MajorD for one.
Below is the progression for the "Insteads" and "Yeahs" at the end of the Choruses. Note, after these
C majorC plays for two bars to lead into the next verse and bridge. That is what the C majorC above the "ah" is
referring too. Also of note is that the song uses triplets and is in triple feel though I've just
laid out the progression as a standard 4/4 set to make it clear and simple.
"Insteads" and "Yeahs" Strumming Pattern:
