Amazing song. Amazing singer.

Tabbed by: Ryan Peterson

This song is just a simple chord progression in 2 different keys with some finger picking.

The patterns of finger picking is pretty much always the same, so you can figure it out.

Example Pattern for C chord:
e|——————————————————————————|
B|———1———————1————1———————1—|
G|———————0————————————0—————|
D|———2—————2——————2—————2———|
A|—3———3————————3———3———————|
E|——————————————————————————|


So once you can do that, the whole song is just a simple progression of:

C Dm G

There is a little variation with the G chord when she sings "Be my guest"/"I wish you 
which goes:

e|—3—1—0—————|
B|———————0h1—|
G|———————————|
D|———————————|       And then back into the C
A|———————————|
E|———————————|

However, halfway through the song, the key shifts a half step up while still finger 
 So your new chords are (I like to play them barred, there might be other ways to play these):


  C#        D#m       G#

e|—4—|    e|—6—|    e|—4—|
B|—6—|    B|—7—|    B|—4—|
G|—6—|    G|—8—|    G|—5—|
D|—6—|    D|—8—|    D|—6—|
A|—4—|    A|—6—|    A|—6—|
E|—4—|    E|—6—|    E|—4—|

That's it.  Have fun.
