Chords

There were a few Judy Garland versions of this floating around but they didn't sound right to me so I've tweaked them and the result is here. I've filed this as Eva Cassidy she in my opinion took possession of this song with her rendition. I've put repeated chords to show the timing of how I play it: Each chord is played downstroke, downstroke, upstroke [Intro] C G Em Am D G [Refrain]

Where troubles melt like lemondrops
