For this song, you’re working with mostly easy open chords like C, Am, and G/B, which is just a G chord with B in the bass. Bm is a barre chord, so take your time getting comfortable with it. Practice switching between C and Bm slowly at first. The chord changes are pretty friendly for beginners, except for Bm, so focus extra on that one!
