#Those are the chords for all of the verse parts.
#For the bridge, just apreggiate them.

#The verse is just a repetition on those chords for 8 bars I think,
#heres the chorus

Fpr the last chorus, its

This is a very simple song to play involving a few easy chords with
alternating bass strings played. The effectiveness comes from the haunting,
soulful vocals.
