Hello there!
This is the tab for the song:
Chan Chan by the Buena Vista Social Club (written by
one of their members, Compay Segundo RIP)
The song is véry easy. A good song to start out with if
you just started playing the guitar. I was quite surprised
not to see a good tab with the correct chords here on this
fabulous site. I'm just a basic player myself, but this awesome
song must be here in it's correct version!
Dm:-1--

These are the chords used in the song, also in this pattern:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/buena_vista_social_club/chan_chan_crd_ver_2.html ]
Dm - F - Gm - Gm7 - A7
Dm - F - Gm - Gm7 - A7
Dm - F - Gm - Gm7 - A7
Dm - F - Gm - Gm7 - A7
etc.
Dm = 1 measure
F = 1 measure
Gm = 3/4 measure
Gm7 = 1/4 measure
A7 = 1 measure
The Gm7 chord is opcional I play it sometimes, other times I like to play nothing
instead.
It's really a very easy song that's fun to play and famous, impress your friends ^_^
Every tab I've seen here (and a lot on YouTube aswell) end with an A instead of
better with an A7 in my opinion.
I don't know ANYTHING about the whole tabbing stuff I just figured I could help :)
