1. Lyrics are wrong. 2. Chords are in wrong places and I keep having to randomly add them myself because I know the song that well.

The song is amazing, and all of the chords are right, but most of the chords are in the wrong places above the words.

I used DDUUDDUU for a majority then cut it in half when two chords needed to be played in a faster pace

For female singers, you can transpose it up to 5 half steps so the scale is in C, if you think the original key is hard to sing cause it goes too low. But perfect chords for a perfect song.

For strumming I reccomend DDDDDDDDDDDD so twelve down strums per chord except that G-C thong where it's six each. On the fourth of every six put more emphasis on the chord so down three times then down a little louder then down regular the next two times. That whole thing twice for each chord. Hope I've explained it well.

I really like this song! a suggestion is, I think you should put the strum on every song, because I have no clue what the strum is!

Instead of...

"When you said you looked a mess I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it darling you look perfect tonight"

on the 2nd to last chorus, it should be replaced with

"When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight"

where it says "darling you look perfect tonight" strum a G on tonight, sounds WAY better
