I'm not sure why everyone else has struggled so much getting the chords correct
for this song. SteelMagnolia was the closest with about 80% right, so I worked off of that.
There's a lot of stuff going on in this song, so I listened very closely to the
bass for the root notes of the chords. Anyways, this is the best version on here.
Just listen to the song for the rhythm and tempo.
Here you go, Marcie!
