This song was a whole lot easier to figure out once I capo'd to the 4th fret. So for you 
hardliner folks who want it in the original key?......well just use the transpose feature 
to the left. It works great! This was a pretty hard song to do so once I got started on the 
capo 4 position I just let it ride...So please forgive me. but it sounds great!
