(This is the version of her song before her album, so there may be a few differences.)
I couldn't find the tabs/chords anywhere online, so I tried to figure them out myself. I watched and listened
to the video to try and figure it out, but I'm not sure how accurate it is, although it sounds okay! Feel
free to leave a comment or suggestion. Enjoy! :)
