From the album Catie Curtis (1997).
Suggested chord forms for picking - see below
The chorus ends on an ambigous chord. A is the bass,
but it contains both C, D and G. I've notated it as Gsus4/A;
but you could also interpret it as, for example, "Am7addD" .
You can also (reasonably well) omit the C note and play an ordinary A7sus4.
You can vary the D chord on lines 1 and 2 of the verse; Dsus4 or Dadd9 is ok.
