Album: Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

'PARSLEY, SAGE , ROSEMARY AND THYME' VERSION:
The original album track is pitched quite sharp
To play along use a chromatic tuner and tune all the
strings up approx +20 cents above standard pitch.
(Will then sound in the originals approx. key of F)
VARIOUS LIVE VERSIONS
Over the years this song has been performed live in
various keys. The live version used on most of their
compilation albums is in standard pitch but performed
a whole tone higher than the original album version:
Greatest Hits compilation albums:
CAPO: 5th fret
(Will then sound in those versions key of G)
Other keys:

CAPO: 4th fret
(Will then sound in that versions key of F#)
