Tuning: E A D G B E

Feel free to add or drop fingers, to flourish. The melody is pretty fluid so you can afford to twiddle a bit. I do not know how accurate it is comparedto the original but it serves me well. The chords are positioned as exactly as I was able, to be true to the way I personally sing along, again this may be an inaccurate representation of the original. [Verse]

(The Rhythm here is a little tricky here, I like to do the first 2 chords in a kind of flamenco strum and switch to a simple, rolling amen break for the last 2, but many strum patterns fit.)
