nice! works for me!

The notes are correct, however I orefer amj7 to look like this: EADGBE --7999 and Gmaj7 to look like this EADGBE --5777 but that's my personal reference. I also think posting the chords would have been nice, but who gives a f**k. 5 stars!

This is a great song that you really need to know if you play in a wedding band or any other cover band that plays private social gatherings. Those maj7 chords are so sweet sounding and can be played all up and down the entire scale of the fretboard! Those chord shapes are really important in rock, jazz,blues, and classical guitar playing.
