Such an amazing song yet so simple!

From the start to the bridge (4:01) it's Fmaj for 1 bar, Dmin for 1 bar and then
Cmaj for 2 bars.
Then from there, the bridge is Fmaj, Dmin, Cmaj and Bbmaj for 1 bar each until 4:49
then it goes back to
the normal progression for four bars but on those last four, you use the bridge
chords.
So rather than C for two bars before the end on F, it's C and Bb for one bar each.

This will all be in the chords below though; just giving you a basic outline before
diving in.
I'm playing this with no capo as it's fairly easy but if you aren't keen on the
Dmin or the Bb
you can transpose this down by 5, put your capo on 5th and have a fun time playing
in the basic
C fingering postions. That is probably best if your gonna solo this as an acoustic
singer and
need to focus on scrunching your face up when you sing. :P

Edit: Lyrics have been fixed.

Edit #2: Upon closer inspection and a few more sit downs at the piano and the
guitar there is most
certainly a C7 chord in there and have added it in. However, it also sounds fairly
good without it so do
what you are comfortable with.
