NOTES:
This song was performed by Neil Finn, Jimmy Barnes et al at the fundraiser
for the charity SCOPE at Stowe school, UK on 8 February 2007.

Try Capo 3 for this. Chord names are given as if no capo were used, and the
fingering is from the capo position. If you have friends who can sing the
3-part harmonies, this song will sound absolutely amazing.
