Dope song. Couple notes:
- The G/B and Am/Bs in the Choruses just mean B is the bass note of the chord. Sounds best if you just play
the note B (2nd fret, A string) as a walk up to the C. Or just skip it altogether...
- Notice the alternating Gs and Ams in the choruses. Works as all Gs (no Ams) too.
