Verse 1
Gmaj7 
D 
In her favorite locket
G 
hiding yellow pills
D 
With white wine to chase them,
G 
lying on the hills
Dmaj7 
We kissed until we couldn't      breathe
G 
Dmaj7 
The coldest sand is on the      beach

Dmaj7 
Now she's in her swimsuit
Gmaj7 
with the yellow straps
D 
Cutting it with scissors
G 
'til there's nothing left
Dmaj7 
And rubbing sunscreen on her      breasts
G 
Dmaj7 
She's putting on her sunglasses

Accurately transcribed by the GuitarTuna team.

Barre chords ask a lot of the fretting hand. The barre course walks through hand position, pressure, and the cleanest way to land each shape. Practice barre chords

Minor 7ths sit between minor and major in feel. The course covers the shapes and the songs they show up in most often. Learn minor 7th chords

Even perfectly fretted chords sound wrong on an out-of-tune guitar. Get in tune in seconds, right in your browser, with the free online guitar tuner
