Rit. = Ritardando, which means to gradually slow down the tempo.

This is my interpretation/version of the song and is what I hear.
Since U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
experiment with your own chord voicings.
