Too Sweet
Hozier
Tune your guitar down a full step down from standard (EADGBE) to (DGCFAD) For my own sanity I'll write the chord shapes as if its still in standard, relative to how the shape would be when its being played with no capo. But in reality the chords were transposed -2. Chords in brackets are optional because in the song it was played by the bass. Strum once for effect.
