Movie is 2 semitones lower than written here...
This version has a key change, however the movie does not. :)
NOTE: I actually play piano, so guitarists might want to revise the chords and eliminate
"passing notes" as appropriate. I have put most in square brackets [].
I've checked it many times, but there may still be mistakes. Sorry, hope it is good
though.
