i love this song. wish i wrote it. hard to sing, though, unless you've got pitch-perfect 3 part harmony... i LOVE the dissonant verses , which i used to drive my ex-landlady crazy listening to at top volume 15 years ago (but it served her right,as she'd make me nuts listening to opera at 1000 decibles...) i think this is right, but maggie tunes her guitar down to, i think, Eb (if you want to play along w/the recording). corrections, suggestions, etc. are welcome. laura missezpremise@aol.com ********** One Season -The Roches (Maggie) (guitar tuned down to Eb !!)
