Simple Song chords by Iwan Rheon

Chords with lyrics

Hello!
There are chords already up for this song that just require some (very) minor changes, but I thought it
might be helpful to cover the strumming pattern in more depth since it's not that simple a song (ha) for
beginners.
I'll put the lyrics/chords below the tab.

U/D: up/down strum. X: string slap / heavy palm muted strum.
