This lazy tab by a non-registered user was incomplete, there were wrong chords all over, there were no full lyrics - in short, it was beyond correction (the original version is documented at the end of the edited tab). As there are many versions for easy guitar here on this site, I took the liberty to replace it with an intermediate version which tries to trace as much of the piano accompaniment as possible. It may look a little complicated at first, but it isn't that difficult to play once you try. Enjoy!
