Hi guys, this is the first tab I'm putting out. Lights won the 2009 Juno for best new
Easy chords, experiment with the strumming for what sounds best.
I chorded it from a YouTube cover by TheNinjaNew (he uses capo on 4), and fixed up some
to sound like the original. I had to add a few parts like the intro, hopefully it works.
This is probably my favorite song of hers, a real feel-good tune :D Hope you enjoy,
and corrections are appreciated!
