*I'm not 100% sure that this is the correct chord, C# also sounds good
here.. try both and decide which you like
**I switched to the different voicing of the chord here because
I feel it helps emphasize the lyrics in the last line, the
difference is small but slightly noticeable. This chord also is not
necessarily an F#, it could also be a B :)
