Before I start, I'd like to say that I just discovered Ben Lear and I decided to
try to learn his songs.This one however, was a freebie, since he posted the chords
in the description of his video. I'm just organizing the chords to the lyrics so
that it'll be easier. And maybe soon, there might be more Ben Lear on UG. Always
open to comments or corrections. Thank you.
