Notes: This is a compromise chart. I'm trying to make a piano-based
song work for solo acoustic guitar. There are a few 2/4 measures
hidden in the recording, usually when the chart indicates you should
hold a chord [<>]. The G2-C2 pattern is an abbreviation for an
instrumental line that walks up and down: (g) (a) (b) (c) (b) (a)
[4x]
