This song is played slowly about (60)tempo. I believe the timing
is about 6/8. In believe on the album its in the key of C. Great
song for quiet moments with your lady.You can play it how ever
you want. Add strums if they fit. Its a great song for changing the
words for the mood at the time. Or add persons name your singing it
around or for.
I transcribed it for easy first position guitar playing. You
could use the G bar chord and it would probably sound better.
Transcribed by Hank Trammell at U-G on 4-20-09. I will transcribe
and send the lead later. W/ chords and piano mix.
