Chords And Lyrics
Here are the seven chords which you need to play the song. Notice that this song uses some slash chords. When a chord contains a slash, then you play the chord before the slash with the note after the slash as a bass note. For this song, the bass notes are part of the original chord triads, so we have simply made inversions of those chords.
