Rich Kids
View chords used in this chart
Hey all, this is my first tab. This is a pretty simple song where the hardest part is the strumming and
timing. I tried to get the chords to line up with the words as close as I could, but you can get the point.
If you listen to the song you can get a fairly good idea of how they strum. Enjoy!
