This is the definative song of the album i think, and it's one of my favourite
songs ever written. (Also, despite critical statements about the Ether Song
album, it's great, and perfect for those seeking acoustic bliss.)

Here they are just playing through the verse chords, first plucking the 5th

effect on the song.)
