Written by John Denver, Taffy Nivert Danoff, William Thomas Danoff
Below is the tab for the first verse and Chorus. Repeat for the other verses. Then play the turn around and repeat the Chorus. I play the chord where I mark them on the song. You can play any chord-notes you want there. I try to keep my fingers as close to the chord positions and its easier and faster to play the notes. This can be played without any back up too.
