Hope this helps, apologies if the chords are placed only approximately where the changes really are. Chords courtesy of a very-long defunct magazine from 23 years ago (i.e. "don't blame me!"). Thanks to everyone who has posted chords and TAB in the past- this is a great forum. Bob McCarthy (b51mc@aol.com)
