Originally performed by Bombadil.
Capo on 5th
Chords used: F F2* C G
*F2 = an F chord played with the first finger on the second fret (so when the capo
is on 5, the F chord begins at 7). I'm not entirely sure what chord this is, but
I believe technically it's a G
The ornament at the beginning played with "what would you say to marriage" starts
at C, them moves up to F2 with these three notes:
e |-------------------3--1--|
B |--1----------------3--1--|
G |-------------------4--2--|
D |--2-----0--2--3----5--3--|
A |--3----------------------|
E |-------------------------|
