Tuning:Standard
Pretty sure this is 100%, i just watched them do this on youtube and thought it sounded
pretty easy. If you have any questions just email me. Basically the song has a CAPO on
the 4th fret. and follows a simple tune. In just going to show the chord used in order,
you can easily work out the strum pattern by listening to it. ALL NOTES RELEVANT TO CAPO

Intro/Verse:
Am Am* F* C G
e|- 0-----0- -1--0 -3-|
B|--1-----1- -1--1 -3-|
G|--2-----2- -2--0 -0-|
D|--2-----0- x2 -3--2 x2 -0-|
A|--0-----0- -0--3 -2-|
E|--x-----x- -x--x -3-|
Chorus:
F* C Am G
That is basically the whole song till the last bit which goes
Em G Dm C
it sounds pretty cool if you pick these in open chords, this enables you do the little
piano riff which goes like this.
Em G Dm C
e|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-4-4-4-2-----4------------2-2-2-4-2-0-----------------------------------|
D|---------5-2--------------------------2----0----------------------------|

Breaking it down with the piano riff and the chords at the same time sounds awesome.
