This is my first tab =p
This song is basically 3 chords: E, A and B. Use an E shaped A and B chord, and
and use an A shaped E chord (9th fret).
E B
Well everything is in its place
E A
but i can't stop the smile on my face
E B E
cause i'm happy, i'm happy in this place

E A
and i can't stop the smile on my face
E B E
cause i'm happy, i'm happier in this place
