You Could Be Happy Accoustic Chords & Tabs
You Could Be Happy Accoustic Tab
This is an amazing song, and it sounds great on acoustic guitar
Alternatively you can use capo 3rd fret and use the chords D5, A, G
for the verse and Em, D5, G
Credit for tabbing this song goes to whoever posted it on youtube,
this is the (closest) tab to what he played but I think it should be right
