NOTES
Any time you see this ___ it means another bar playing the same chord.
If you don't feel like playing the coda where it briefly changes key to Ab
(Concert D) major, then just finish by playing a C on 'bag' and no one will
know the difference.
Please don't forget to rate, and if you've spotted something that I haven't
then leave a comment.
