The recurring Bass Melody theme is four times (upwards, last note deep):
BThC#e LDeaEd GuC#itar later plays with the same phrasing (downwards, last note high):
F# E D E A
Note that Verse 3 has a different bass progression from the other verses.
Acoustic Guitar plays simple chords with a capo on second fret, press the "SIMPLIFY" button for those easy
chords without bass progression, then "transpose" "-2" and put your capo on second.
If you like this sheet, rate it 5*, it only takes 1 second and keeps me motivated to share sheets. :-)
