This is a love song for physics and chem nerds. Thank you, Sapient! :D
I wrote down all the lyrics and figured all the chords to my liking, but if I got anything wrong,
just comment below. Any words you d need another person to sing are in () s. I couldn t figure
out the solo.
Practice the lyric rhythm a lot, then sing this to your girl. I believe in you.

[Tune all strings down a half step]
(?) = a D-shaped chord on fret 4 with pinky hammer(h)-on-pull(p)-offs
(X) = a D-shaped chord only using the top two strings and sliding it up the neck
(B7)= a weird bar. You can use any B7 you want for the other B7 s, but if you want
to do the hammer-on-pull-offs, you gotta use the one tabbed below.
* = There s a D-to-D7 chord transition thing actually happens as a triplet before
the first beat in the last measure. The paino plays it.
_ = I tried to label where the down-beats are.
