This song has a 4/4 time signature, in the key of E. What I call an "E9" is a barre
chord on the ninth fret, as opposed to an E1, which is the standard open chord. The A2 is
a normal A played with only the pinky and ring fingers. There are three chord
progressions: one for the introduction and verses, another for an instrumental section,
and a third
for the chorus. There is a tag at the end of the second chorus, and some changes at the
end. If you have any questions, post them below and I shall try to answer. I hope
that this song is a blessing to you!
