[Variations]
 
You will have to listen to the song to hear timings as i haven't tabbed individual strums.
Later on in the song he adds variations that you can play exactly as he does or have
them so you can add
them in when you feel is right.

I’m a little lost. The description of the chords have a different tune listed as what you are listing here and the paragraphs. I use this app to tune as well and I didn’t see an option for CGDGAD. How is that achieved. I’m really new to this and I’m lost.
