I transposed this song from the original for easier play-ability with use of a capo for
those who find it difficult to play full barre chords. FOr this acoustic version I play
using the intro strumming pattern for the entirety if the song. It gives it a fuller 
sound especially when playing alone in contrast to traditional staccato style Reggae
strumming which is ideal when playing in a full band. Enjoy.
