I find this song a bit tricky, but it carries so much emotion it is worth
the work to make up an arrangement of it.  the recording makes heavy use of
piano with   electric guitar embellishments, so this acoustic version
attempts to capture the feel of those instruments.  You really do not need
the fancy E and F#m7 chords, but the forms here do give the song the feel
of the original.  I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who gives this a try.
I tend to submit stuff from rather obscure artists and I oftenwonder if
anyone else actually enjoys playing it.

attempts to capture the feel of those instruments. You really do not need
