some parts of this would sound better with the open D strummed instead of the 5th on the A; like the breakouts where he's like "YOURRR SONGG" and the very end chord

and the part where this is sung (not sure) And I could call you baby doll all the time And youd whisper in my ears, youd say i missed you boy Now sing it over again and over again, and over again would sound better with the open D instead of the 5th on the A
