I don't know why but for 35 yrs I've been playing the verse pattern: G-D-Am...G-D-C opposite of this pattern. LOL It always helps to drag an old dog back into the woods and off the porch from time to time. I actually learned it while on the bandstand with other people playing it. SO WHAT THE BOOZERS never complained, as long as they could sing along!

The chord pattern is not right. The C’s are where the Am’s are supposed to be and the Am’s are where the C’s belong.
