Thanks for the great start. Some suggestions based on playing with the recording: In the verse: when Am-E-F-D appears, I think it should be Am-E-C-D. In the pre-chorus: Between the F and the E, it sounds like there's a Cdim7 ("Things are looking up").

I love Charlie Puth and this tab was amazing! Thanks!

Hi there, I hear more jazzy chords,the C and F are supposed to be major 7th, the D a 7/9, and the E rather E7. But above all, at the end of the Pre-Chorus pero the E.Chord he definitely plays a B7
