Another song the Key of Tim... Dm! This one's been a live favourite for a
year or two and has finally made it to CD on the Thankyou EP. The C/E
indicates that the chord is a C but the bass is inverting it by playing
the chord's 3rd (E) as the lowest note in the mix. The lead-in note to the
second F chord in the chorus is an E, I've notated it as e->F.
