I based this tab on just listening to the song so if you have any improvements, feel free to leave a comment! :)
He plays a chord in the verses after the C which is called Dadd9/add4 Well, actually I searched for the
shape and found this is the name of the chord. It's actually a C-chord that is moved up 2 frets and sounds
a little bit like a fancy D-chord. It looks like this:
e--0--
B--3--
G--0--
D--4--
A--5--
E-----
For the strumming/picking pattern, I recommend listening to the song. It's relatively easy to figure out :)
Tuning: Standard
CAPO: 3
