Song: FREE FALLIN`

The lyrics can already be found on the Harmony Central Archive, but these
chords sound better to me than the ones found there:
Instead of: G C C G D which is what is found in the Crd.

FALLING, use the following in TAB:
I only used them on the part of the chorus, but is generally all the same
throughout the song. Note that this is a very simple way of playing it.
When playing it strum each chord up and down something like 3 or 4 times.
Or just listen to the song.
