This was fast!

Thanks for the feedback. You're right about the difficulty, I've now changed this to intermediate. A couple suggestions that might make it easier to play: 1. Instead of arpeggio barre chords at the beginning, you could try a single strum for each chord as an open chord (i.e. first hand position). It won't match the song as closely but it would be much easier to play. 2. Youtube has a feature where you can playback at 0.75 speed (click bottom right button in the video window). You could practice playing along at this speed until you master it then switch to regular speed and practice playing along. I've found playing along to the recording repeatedly helps improve timing and chord changes. Good luck.

yeah! !
