I wrote down the chords of this amazing song by the Milk Carton Kids. I did it by
ear so I'm not 100% sure it's correct. I think it's pretty close though. Kenneth
Pattengale does a lot of little riffs through his chords, wich are pretty easy to
find but pretty hard to play. If you want to improvise on the song: the song is written in Bb.
