in the riff, i like to mute all the strings im not playing, and then strum it. this makes it easier to do the fast notes, and it also sounds better imo
for the c chord in the chorus, it sound better if you use cmaj7 instead (in my opinion)
Is there finger picking? This song would sound better finger picked in my opinion.
Sounds great! Happy this is here.

Transpose +5 for easier chords :)
After every C in the verses, play D and then Em to transfer the song more flowingly than it shows.
the tab doesn’t sound right. It sounds a bit high
You can transpose to make a tab higher/lower but the chords all make sense
I’m not sure if they’re in the original key but it definitely works as I’ve played this through for an audience before and it worked fine
