Turquoise Blue by Incredible String Band
Figured this out this morning.
This may not be perfect, but I think it sounds pretty good.
The main problem is my confusion over the B or C ending the verse
When I play it to the song, it sounds like a C,
but when I play it alone, I like the sound of the B?
Also, I play this with bar chords only so if you know
a better/more accurate chords, please let me know!
 I love this song!
