I've been looking at the mIDI for this song. (I think it would be nice for my recorder learners.)
Some time ago, somebody asked Joe about the ending notes of the song. I suggest changing them from F and D to F and C. The song still floats at the end, but the F and C combo seems more natural.
I am convinced that the bar lines of the chorus in the versions given above are in the wrong place. I've moved them, using the theory that stressed notes should match stressed syllables in the lyrics, and that measures and chords ought to co-operate with each other.
I'll send the MIDI to Joe for musicians' consideration.
