tabs:get_famous
I've included two versions here: one in the original key of C#, and another in the key of A w/ capo 4,
which minimizes (but does not eliminate) the need for barre chords.
Pretty sure the chords are correct but I also did this super fast so please correct me if you find any mistakes.
