This is a great, great song. One of those that you wish had another verse and
chorus but at the same time you love how short and sweet it is.
Just hit the base note of each chord for all the verses. On the Pre-chorus-type
parts start strumming and strum loudest for Chorus. Listen to the song for Strum pattern.
