**This file is all my own work etc and all mistakes may be attributed to
ME**

This one is quite repetitive, so I've just given the basic patterns. The
listing of chords used includes normal open chords as well as two variations
(called v1 and v2). I've indicated where I think certain variations should
be used in different parts of the song, but really you can use any chord you
think sounds best. Have fun with the tab and email comments to
<koralim81@yahoo.com>.
