I sing this song in this key all the time and it's good to see some one got it right, all cords are correct in this key I've tried singing to all the other chord patterns on the net converted to my key but they don't sound right,and i'm glad you got the Bbdim cord right. there must be a lot of tone deaf people out there.

Just now working through it and am so pleased. Wanted to learn this song forever but couldn't seem to find a 'doable' version. Doable is what I label a song that has some challenging chords/transitions and in a key I can sing in, but that will challenge me to learn with some practice. It's one of the many reasons I LOVE UG. It's making me a better guitar player/singer every time I open the site. I think my favorite thing is being able to sing along with the original or cover. It helps enormously with timing and phrasing. Huge thanks and hugs to all who so generously post music here on UG.

Excellent I sing it on seventh fret it works for my voice
