Is it the same as the Elvis Costello version?

No, it's a different song, Sorcha.

It's quite a simple song, so I should be able to work something out for you Nick. Give me until the weekend though. If someone else beats me to it, all well and good.

Thanks Ed for the offer, I was looking for a quick fix as my wife wants to sing it tonight. I shouldn't have been so lazy, so I sat down and worked it out last night.

Apart from...

There is one bit I can't get though which is the link between the verse and chorus.

First verse ends IV - I - V7 - I

Second verse into chorus goes IV - I - ? - ? - ? - ? and then moves to V for the beginning of the chorus. I can't pick up the link between verse and chorus (something then a couple of diminished's I think).

It's not crucial for tonight as I can ignore it and go straight to the chorus but if you have an idea on the transition it would be great.
