Ok well this album has been one that I can return to whenever I want. And I saw the bass

Ok that's it, i'm lazy just transpose it into the rest of the song like I did with the
so that's it.
Isn't it lovely how simple songs become on guitar? You can play this acoustically too,
how I do it. Capo sounds better with Piano though in my opinion.
Any thoughts or anything, just hit me a line on my UGSpace. Cheers.
