The song follows a variation of these chords:
[Em] [-] [A] [-] [(D] [-] [C#/D)] [-] [Bm]
Note for beginners: The C#/D is simply the D chord with the root note taken down half a
step (one fret).
So for a bar chord simply slide down one fret on the A string.
Open chord D will require a pinky/ring finger on the 4th fret of the A string.
Muting the D string will give best results, or you can just add 4th fret d string as well.
This can be played as bar chords or open chords. However to get the similar sound it can
be played with the "chords" below.
[Em]x [A]x [D]x [C#/D]x [Bm]x
x x x x x
x x x x x
x x x x x
10 4 9 9 5
12 5 10 9 7
I must stress that you don't have to stick to this, add your own notes in and it will
sound great
example:
[Em]x
x
x
[12]10
[12]
etc etc, mix it up, make it your own.

Lyrics:
This is a song for my simplest love
A simple song for a simplest love
Her eyes are green, her hair is brown
This is a song for my simplest love
A constant song for a constant love
No difficult chords, easy to play
A simple song for a simplest love
Her eyes are green, her hair is brown
Enjoy
