ROYALS - JASMINE THOMPSON
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi guys! This is the first tab I made. I did my very best and think it's about 95% right.
But however, please let me know if you notice any mistakes. (I like to learn from my mistakes!)
Note: At the bridge, I wrote some random, simple pluck line, but you should improvise a little at this
part to make it sound more interesting. Same goes for the chorus. The strumming pattern I wrote there is
a very basic one. You could make your own variations there as well.
