All the tabs I found for this song just didn t sound right, so I went through and
made one myself. Just the basic chords for the song. For it to sound pretty much
exactly like PotUSA, you need to play it with a capo on the first fret but I find
that that makes the oh-a-oh s a touch too high for me, so I play it without the capo.
