During this song, Nick does some hammer-ons on the D string from fret 2-3 and
sometimes leaves the B string open. Just listen around for it. This is such a
beautiful song. Hope this helps!

Verse2
Spent a month living out on the east coast made me realize
just who I love most and that's not you. That's not you. Well I'm sorry for the
things that I said dear, but you and I were left in last year and now we're gone.
We've been for so long.
Chorus
I've come to terms with the fact that I'm dying.
And my lungs are turning black from the smoking.
But I am not afraid, no, I am not afraid. (x2)
No I am not afraid.
