*When Sarah plays this song on
the piano, she usually hits
each chord in the verse about
times. However, on Bm's, she
usually hits that 3 times and
then changes to a D before
to the next chord, so it looks
like this: (Bm)(Bm)(Bm)(D).
I've indicated where this
with an asterisk*.
You can decide whether you like
better playing with or without this.
