# I see a TAB posting exists in OLGA for this song, with lyrics and chords
tagged onto it. My version
#  is a quick and dirty chord/lyric sheet. I see that I hear different
chordings: I throw in a D9 accent, # also Esus4. I find the D-E-f# (lc "f"
notation for minor chord) progression works well in barres.
