3 Foot Tall

This song was pretty popular at one point, and I really liked it. I noticed that there weren't any online chords, so I figured them out with no hassle. Sorry it took me so long to post. I was really busy and we had a internet outage and blah blah blah. I just want to point it out that this song sound a lot better with barre chords and is easier. So instead of playing normal Bm, G, D, and As I play a normal Bm, 4232 (G), 2225 (D), and 6454 (A). Enjoy!
