# The whole song is one chord progression. Listen to the song to # get it down. #It's two counts of A A, two of F#m F#m, one of D D, one # of E E, and two more counts of A A. #It's very easy and it's a # beautiful song.
# btw, the official E E chord on this site is not the best way of # doing E E for this song. I recommend:
-2-
-4-
-4-
-4-
# This way you can bar your first finger over the second fret # and just slid down your D D chord down to the 4th fret

A A
When xxx xxxxx xxx xxxx
F#m F#m
And xxx xxxx xx xxxx
D D E E A A
And xxx xxxx xx the xxxx xxxxx xxxxx see

# ...etc.
