Crown the Empire's cover of Forever (originally by Drake). There are a few mistakes with
the strumming in the first verse, but it's pretty much all zeroes and the general
strumming pattern is easy. Hope you all enjoy!

As I'm posting what the rhythm plays, I don't think there's anything else played until
the chorus. If you do want to play the lead from 1:19 to 1:25, I'm pretty sure it's just
octaves, so...
Chorus:
(1:25-1:37)
