Robin included the chords in Bandcamp, but they sound a half step too sharp, so this is transposed down to the correct chords. All of the chords are pretty accurate, but the bridge and outro might need more work. Try substituting any of the C's with a Cmaj7, and see if that works.

Difficulty:	intermediate
Tuning:	G C E A
Capo:	no capo
