Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)
NOTE:
An asterisk indicates a single strum. Where I have an Am* in the chorus, this sounds like a stacatto
final strum before moving to the F.
Where I have indicated the G☠☠ it sounds like she is sliding up 2 frets from an 
Fsus2Fsus2 to the G.
The 
C/BC/B chords are just a 3-2-0 walk-down from the 
C majorC to the 
A minorAm on the 
A augmentedA string.
The 
Am/GAm/G is a walkdown from the A minorAm to the 
FF on the low 
E MajorE string.
In the bridge where I have 2 
G+G chords together those are single downstrums before moving to the next chord.
