Absolutely fell in love with this song when I first heard and had to put it on repeat for an
entire day. Then decided to figure out how to play it.
Don't let the chord names put you off, they're easy to finger. You can play the chords
without the added colouring to it (ie F instead of Fmaj7/C, etc), but the bass will sound a
bit off.
