Key: C + 2 = D major
I feel the song in a very slow 2/4, quarter = 44.
This is for the most part a very simple and slow strumming song, but Buck does play with some melodic
stepwise stuff as he moves between chords. I wrote out some of these as chords, but there are more; for
instance, hammer on 0h2 on the fourth string when moving from Em to F in the chorus, and play the bass F#
when moving from G to F. Note also that he's playing more on the lower strings than the higher ones.
