Hey, guys! Just putting this up because I noticed that the other versions up here aren't quite right!
 
Lyrics from the video description, but tweaked to what she actually sings :)
 
Plucking pattern:
 
A|-----x-x---x-x---x-x---x-x-...
E|-----x-x---x-x---x-x---x-x-...
C|---x-----x-----x-----x-----...
G|---------------------------...
 
Basically the C string once, then the E and A twice, and repeat.
 
Have fun, all!

Friends float above in the wind
                             D

It's like walking around with a stone for a heart

I felt like you once, I wish I could shout
