Year Released: 1974/5

Transcription: Gunter Kohl, kohl@kph.uni-mainz.de     
This might be a slightly easiert version than the original by Chris de
Burgh. He uses sometimes somehow somechords with 7, 7+ and things like
that:)
Please send corrected files to guitar@olga.net and mention, that it is a
better one than this.
