I actually made this for a ukulele, but it's fine on guitar, too.
Standard tuning.
This is in a lower key than the original song. It's easier to sing though. xD
Note: The Bb that is spaced like, way off of some of the words is in the right
place. it's just for like, if you want to have a bit of a filler there. It's optional.
