Great song by Matt Costa, he managed to capture to some extent a 60's feeling without
losing the classic Matt Costa sound.
In the acoustic version he uses a capo on the 2nd fret, but i think he has his guitar
tuned one step down, so its okay to play it in Standard Tuning.
If i get any request to tab the intro part, or the little rundown he does i'll do it,
it's pretty easy if you are accustomed to tuplets.
The part that says "i cannot explain" and "i'd be saying again", the A B A chords arent
actually chords, they are bass notes, just play the root bass notes of the chords and
then land in the F# chord.

You put a spell on me
