Guitar Tricks require song request submissions here Ken. GL.

In the interim.

Good song. Single guitar campfire strumming version is pretty easy, the steady rhythm giving it a country inflection notwithstanding. Two all open chord progressions in the verse and chorus, & a bridge. The late JD's incredible vocal OTOH....."oh my!".

Campfire version, just quickly by ear.

In key of G, moderate tempo, 'countrify' the strum

Verse G-Em-D-C-G (repeat twice)

Chorus G-D-C-Am G-D-C-G

Bridge. Equally easy chords, albeit slightly more challenging in transition timing and the change from Em to F.

Em-D-G-C-G-D Em-F-C-G-D-D7

Just get stuck in and give it a go. Comes easily with the usual repetition. Have fun.
