-------------------------------
NOTE:
- There is a characteristic bass changing pattern in parts of the song like the Intro, which I
decided not to write in the chords (since it would run so long), found in the Gm chords. The changing
bass goes like /G /A /Bb /A /G /F
- In the Intro, Gmadd11 is an accurate chord but simply doing Gm can suffice
Chord Suggestions (EADGBe):
Bbsus2 x13311
Csus2 x35533
F/C x33211
Bb6 x13313 or 653333 (easier alternative is Bbsus2 or Bb)
FM7/A x03210
Gm/Bb x10033
Gm/C x35333
