My Shot by Hamilton Musical
(This is my first tab/chord, so be forewarned of some slight miscalculations with beat.
I tried to match it up as close as I could with the Original Broadway Recording. If there are any corrections,
this is open to be corrected. Have fun and don't throw away your shot :D)
