It's basically the same except I don't hang on to the high B in the 4th bar of the B part. That changes the chord structure (more Gish than D), which is pretty much the only difference between the settings.

there's more to this care free little number than first meets the eye in the 'tune'; its beautiful nuanced 'turn'.
