This is my version and is what I hear. The chords on this song
should be fairly easy for most advanced beginners or intermediate
players. If you are unfamiliar with the F/A slash chord,
simply play an F chord and it will still sound fine. For those
unfamiliar with slash chords, we simply alter the bass note of
the normal chord - typically using another note from the triad.
For example, a C chord uses C, E and G - this is the triad.
Normally, the C chord would have a C in the bass, or lowest note.
I could make this a slash chord, or inversion, by playing the
same notes, but perhaps playing an E or a G in the bass. It's
still a C chord, but I have changed the root or bass note.
This version is in the published key.
