Capo 2 (it's actually played on capo 3 in half step down tuning, but either works) Intro/Chorus: 5355xx x355xx x7577x x577xx Play these four chords four times (six times in final chorus) Instrumental: x355xx 355xxx 354xxx 3545xx Play these four chords three times x2200x Play these two chords in the transition from instrumental to final chorus 8877xx Matches up with what's played in the music video and live versions, although Wilbur uses an Fm barre chord shape for that last chord in his acoustic live version Strumming pattern is mostly downstrokes except from when transitioning between chords and at the end of some phrases. I just uploaded a shot where you can hear the rhythm guitar in the intro in case you're unsure on how to play it :)
