Try downloading it from iTunes. Be prepared to see other versions though. Ritchie's version is the most famous but its a traditional folk song. Ritchie's version is actually slower.

Isn't itunes a pay per song type site? (I would say don't be a pirate) lol

I like Richies version better than anyone else's. It's really a great song. And i believe it may be in the easy song section, the tab, if not, then someone hollor and I'll put it up for ya's!!

Isnt it pretty much a three chord trick progression?

Yup. But its only $.99 a song so its not like you're breaking the bank. Especially if you're only looking for one song. I just wish they had a more complete library of songs there.

Yeah, I play it with open position C, F, G. And get that little hook nicely fitting into the chord fingerings.
