This is the version performed by Jennifer Cella at the band's live performances. I did
with just my acoustic guitar and it is my first submission, so please go easy on me!
Use a capo if necessary to guide your voice. I'm a girl and I find it comfortable with
capo at the 4th fret. It can work just as well on the 3rd or even 5th, depending on
voice's capability.
