please mind , that this is the acoustic version , originally played on piano ,
but it works great on acoustic guitar too . course the piano can’t be transposed ,
but i’m a lazy keayboarder and ultimate guitar can make the job , if you want to play it on piano .
* for a detailled piano description , look below the chords .
