Here's Allen Stone's "Figure It Out" off of his debut album.
I've included the chord fingerings but there are little hammer-on parts you'll have to listen to the
recordings to get.
I've also included the alternate part he plays on verse 2 in the live version recording from his
newest album because it just sounds cool!
This is by ear so PLEASE RATE!

[ch]Emaj7/B[/ch]
Well, I am just a man, and I just can't pretend,
That the essence of your being is easy to understand,
[Am7]But I, [B11] I,
[Am7]Well, I, [B7sus4]I, I,
