NOTES: This version is based on the acoustic track of the studio version, which is supported by Neil Finn's
play style during live performances. The 'C*' chord is just an alternative of C Major which I couldn't find a
distinctive name for during some research. 'C*' is just a hammer on after the first strike of the chord for
resonance.
