I submitted different chords a day or two after the song was released that never went through, but are in the right key and match the original better:
Gm, Eb, Bb, D7. (In that order, though I skipped the Bb in some parts like the pre-chorus.) God knows why they weren’t approved.
+2 is the correct key
+ 4 and -1 are quite easy the chords are easier for +4 but it’s a bit hard to sing
-3 with a capo on 1 is easy and in the right key. I also prefer to pluck the strings in the chords rather than strum. Doing -3 without a capo sounds nice and sultry, if your voice can go that low.
It says to play Ab on fret 2 but I think it sounds better and more like the original on fret 3
+1 is amazing for beginners
its okay with a higher voice
does anyone know a strumming pattern better than ddddu?
