As well as her

***Although the chords above are correct, use these variations in order to match
Ed's sound better: ***
For G chords use this:
e|x-------|
B|0-------|
G|0-------|
D|9-------|
A|10------|
E|x-------|
For C chords use this:
e|x-------|
B|0-------|
G|0-------|
D|2-------|
A|3-------|
E|x-------|
You can also use this slight variation as a C chord:
- Note: This works best if you're playing the other chords as regular chords.
For D chords use this:
e|x-------|
B|0-------|
G|0-------|
D|4-------|
A|5-------|
E|x-------|
You can also use this slight variation as a D chord:

e|0-------|
B|3-------|

For Em chords use this:
e|0-------|
B|0-------|

______________________________
^^^ These chords sound best if you play the root note and the one above it at the
same time, as this is what I think Ed does.
For example, if you wanted to play a G chord, on the first strum of the chord be
sure to emphasise these two notes:
e|--------|
B|--------|
G|--------|
D|9-------|
A|10------|
E|--------|
