Okay, fingerstyle tab based off of the keyboard part. See any other tab of this
for basic chords, and feel free to substitute them for the silly jazz chords in
the bridge if need be. :V The strumming style in the verse/chorus is a bit hard to
tab, but just feel it out and you'll get it. Also this is in Eb tuning, but it
sounds fine in standard. Chords are named as the shapes would be in standard tuning.

If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

I just wanted to hold
