if you wanna get the strumming thing going that they play in the song, use the same plucking for ‘Hey There Delilah’ by the Plain White T’s but use the chords on this tab 🙂
Transpose +2 or -3 for easier chords. 🙂
the last f c need to be switched, other than that spot on!
On the last “voice and sing along” I used the F chord then the Bb chord. I think it sounds better that way! Other than that the song is great!
Ladies!! (or gents)!!! If 0 is both too high AND low to sing go to -4!!!! it’s really easy to play and sing along to:)
For the outro, it’s F G C not F C G
This song is so sweet!!
