5 Chords used in the song: E, D, A, G, E7
←
This is my first tab on here so tell me if there's anything wrong. You can play the intro either way, but I think it sounds better if you can work the E chord into it smoothly.
Also, I thought it would be pointless to transcribe all the chords to words again so I copied them from a previous post (can I do that?) Thanks Marra!

A|--------------------|--------2~~~-------|
E|-----------------OR-|--------0~~~-------| (x3)
