I've seen many versions of this song posted in this archive, but when played
against the album version, they don't sound quite right. Some are out of key,
and none of the fingerpicking versions have sounded right as submitted.

Here's my spin on the song that sounds very close to the recording. I have
added J.P. Seneviratne's chord changes and lyrics.
