I'd suggest -2 or +5 if you want to make it a bit easier. There are some very quick chord changes in this song.

EVERYONE!!! THE LYRICS ARE FINE, THIS IS THE ORIGINAL VERSION, THE ADVENTURE TIME VERSION OF THIS IS OBVIOUSLY DIFFERENT, IT’S FINE YOU CAN STILL JUST SAY “BUTTERFLIES AND BEES” IF ITS THAT MUCH OF A PROBLEM. sorry, but all the “ThE lYrIcS aRe WrOnG” comments are kinda annoying
DDU DDU DDU UDU
Instead of Am, it’s Bm and the strumming pattern is just d-u-d-u.
also convert the E7 in the second chorus to D
all of this in my personal opinion makes the song easier and run more smoothly
If anyone’s wondering how to strum this I do DDUDDU
I think the Am in the verses should be Bm, and Gb7 should just be Gb. I think it sounds better that way :p
Okay Bm instead of Am, it sounds so much better.
*Gbm
I replaced the Am with Em or Em7 as I don’t like play Bm
I second the substitution of the Am with Bm
