This is the acoustic version of the wonderful 'Rest' by Michael Kiwanuka, the way it was
played in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?vew2DaeI9ZnI
The studio version is half a note lower, so if you want to play it that way you can
either transpose the chords a half step down or tune your guitar in Eb.
