You’ll find lots of easy open chords here like Em, G, and C, which are super beginner-friendly. GM7 and G/B add some nice color but aren’t too tough—just watch your finger placement for clean transitions. No barre chords like Bm or F#m, so this song is great for practicing smooth chord changes and building confidence with open shapes. Have fun with it!
