This tune is super friendly for beginners since it uses a lot of easy open chords like C, Em, Am, D, and G. Watch out for G/B, which is just a G chord with B in the bass—try using your index finger on the second fret of the A string and mute the low E. No barre chords here, so your hands will thank you!
