Intro

Hey Guys! I made another tab for the intro that goes with this version of the song.
Hope you like it!!!
*=strum twice then mute
**=strum once let ring



 Am
There ain't no way that I could ever forget you
I can't remember why I ever went and left you
 F
Maybe I was hitting my head
Maybe must've been something that I said
Dm                               E
Maybe I want to take it back tonight
