Transcription by : Ivo van Poorten <ivop@euronet.nl>

This is by no means 100% correct, but the basic chords are right, it sounds
nice and is easy to play. Not too difficult to sing either, even for a
mediocre singer like me.

        EADGBe
D     : x5777x
G     : 355433
A     : 577655
A7    : 575655
Csus4 : x3556x
C     : x3555x
F     : 133211
Bb    : x1333x
C7    : x3535x

Note: During the verse, you can hear a second guitar that makes slides
from C to D on a single snare and the same for F>G and G>A. It's quite easy
to do the same with the uppermost snare of your chord.
