sounds better switching the chord placement: Use EM in place of G, G in place of C, and C in place of EM
Use Am in stead of C it sounds better
+4
-2
I really like -7 personally, and it’s easier for me to sing
Cmaj7 sounds pretty nice instead of c
The C chord sounds a bit weird when played with the track, but otherwise it’s great!
-5 for lower voices
