This one was on her Girlysound demo tapes, and I took quite a liking to it, but couldn't 
find a tab for it. It's actually pretty simple. It goes along with the live version; 
the taped version sounds just a little bit different.

(Standard tuning, Capo 2nd)

**On the D in each verse, take your finger off the first string and play it with the 
high E open. Alternate between that and the standard D chord.

You might want to mess around with the G a little too and see what sounds best.
