Confusion

web-site (all of which are very good
 I hasten to add), I picked up my 
trusty instrument
of destruction and immediately broke
 my top e string. Being forced to 
make do until the
shops open tomorrow morning and I 
manage to pinch the pennies from my 
wife's purse, I
have worked out an alternate way of 
playing this song. I actually think 
(?!) it sounds
closest to the original - shoot me 
if it doesn't!

NOTE the extra note in each bar - it
 helps give the rhythm and flow to 
the song.

I hope this makes sense - CONFUSION 
- yes indeedy!
