Oh my god, the original is so much better than my cover:

Takin' a break from recording some tracks for The Cedar Tavern Singers. Yes, I do my recording in a dark woodshop.

The chords as I play them are:
B E G#m F#
E G#m F# E B G#m (F#) B G#m (F#) B

Playing along with the original I would put a capo on the first fret and go
C F Am G
F Am G F C Am (G) C Am (G) C

The ones in brackets I don't think are actually in the song- it just goes between Am and C. But they sound okay so I play them. That is my unofficial motto.

As usual I am tuned in D, because I am Canadian and also old-timey.
