More Than This

Sometimes, like for example in the Verse for the F and Dm, one might be better off with F5 and D5, especially when also Lead Guitar is played, but this version is rather made to enable playing the song with acoustic guitar and give a harmonic overview. I chose to note down the most significant part of the Lead Guitar in extra tabs instead of writing something like Fadd9 etc. for simplicity and readability. Strumming patterns are suggestions for acoustic guitar which also work when playing along with the song, but they're not close to original.
