Capo on 3rd fret
	        There aren't chords for this song anywhere that I can find, so I did it myself. 
I've also included a tab for the main guitar riff of the song; it stretches 
over multiple chords, so hopefully the way that I notated it is clear enough. 

Capo III, all chords (and tab for riff) relative to capo. 
Riff: 
   G           Em          C           G
