A fantastic exercise in complicated simplicity, the same four chords
used, but after setting out the beautiful simple structure of the song,
Mr. Flannery then slides in and out and over the timings with the lyrics
speeding up, slowing down and still making perfect sense.
Also, after the piano comes in, I think he used a B chord as a step up
from the Gm chord, back to the Cm, sounds good to throw it in now and then.
For those that print out copies? I have included a version below that will
save you the trouble of moving the chords.
