This song is from the album JUST KIDS(2014), released on 15 December 2014.
This album was produced by Mat Kearney . This song is good, but it’s not great. The vocals felt fine and the production had nothing to brag about. The rhythm felt smooth and clean, although a few shakers or hi-hats wouldn’t have hurt it. The vocals had a weird reverb on it that made it sound unnatural and uninspiring. I feel that this song could have been saved through better production techniques and better mixing. The chords are in the original key of the song. You can change it to any key you want, using the Transpose option below. These chords are simple and easy to play on the guitar or piano.
