Thanks for checking out the tab. Chording is as complicated as I get as I
play mostly acoustic guitar and like to get the base of the songs down. I
hope it starts you off in the right place so you can go elsewhere with it
especially the bridges into the chorus. I know something more interesting or
accurate can go there cest la vie. Enjoy
Sorry, didn't tab out the opening harpsicord.

at this point everything is taken a half step up from original key.
you can do this or just be lazy like me and keep it in the same key
