I was really shocked when I saw that no one had but up the chords for this, so I
decided to figure them out, seeing as I wanted them for something anyway.
This is really basic, but accurate. The only three chords you need to use for this
are D, A and G, and it's great for beginner guitarists and a helping hand to more
advanced guitarists who want to add their own twist.
Let me know if there's anything wrong, by commenting, and I'll fix it.
