A very easy one chord song from the early 70s. C7, and the first string is never used. Fingerpicking is (5-2 together).3.4.6.2.3. The only thing that moves in the song is the melody which makes the song sound different. This song was used in the Tarantino movie, "Resivior Dogs" during the ending credits. The song was also used most recently in a Coke/Coca-cola commerical.

I love this song and Nillsons music. I also love your cover . Awesome job man but you lacked enthusiasm as if you were gonna cry! Give me a call buddy I'll do the song with you and liven it up!

It was not intentional :-) I plan on redoing this someday and fixing the first verse.

Brilliant. I was watching reservoir dogs just a few hours ago, and heard the original. I can tell you, it's a superior cover, and you should perform somewhere. I for one, would pay to see this for example, live.

Thanks for the comment! I may repost this at some point. I was not satisfied with the first lyric I did after I heard the original again, but I know it now. And resevior dogs is a great tarantino film! :-)
