Most chords here are open and beginner-friendly, like Dm, C, F, G, and Am. F can be tricky for some, so try the mini barre version if needed. Watch for slash chords in the bridge—they just change the bass note, so you can play the regular chord if you’re new. Strum gently and focus on smooth transitions. No barre chords from the special list, so it’s a great song for practicing open shapes!
