Outro- Intro Chords x4
basically amazing cept i believe its actually half a step lower... im singing it in choir right now, and im feelin it too high here
half a step lower than Eb? i think it sounds fine
yeah its fine... im trying to transpose it to a capo on 2... ive got the chorus figured, but the rest is trickier... (btw, the chorus chords on 2 would be Em G C D)
