Chords for Keep Breathing by Ingrid Michaelson

Wow, two exciting Lyrical Venus firsts just days apart - my first interview, and now my first actual tab! (The Mandy Moore Umbrella chords didn't really count since I only discovered a hack for it.)

I haven't been able to find chords for Ingrid Michaelson's beautiful song Keep Breathing, so today I decided to try my hand (and ear!) at creating my own tab for it. I'm not much of a finger-picker yet, so it's just chords actually, but I think they work pretty well. Give the song a listen while you play to get the timing and such, and let me know what you think, or if there is something I missed!

See my original Ingrid Michaelson entry for info about where you can listen to and purchase Ingrid's music. Or watch her perform The Way I Am, aka "The Sweater Song", the song that is now being featured in the Old Navy commercial.
