So I can play this song, but I'm not sure of what some of the chords are called.
So here they are, and I'll just call them 1 and 2 until someone can tell me :P
1- 032020
2- 030210 -This one is essentially a reverse C chord.
And the rest of the chords are just D, A7, and G.
If you want to watch her play it, look up this song on YouTube and find a video of her.
That's how I figured it out. You can figure out the finger picking style like that as well.
But anyways, hope you enjoy :D

D 1
Your heart sings like a kettle
