Thank you for posting a version of this song with some of the more nuanced chords - a much better representation of the actual song than the other tabs submitted!

Bang on! The only correct version on here. It’s a shame about all the wrong versions - especially when they receive so much praise, leading people to blindly ( or deafly) accept them.
