This is the Orlando Weeks solo acoustic version. I hope it’s correct, and not too complicated.

The intro is the same as the first 4 bars of original song.
This version is just strumed a little different, you might agree it sounds better using
thumb to strum rather than a pick.
Intro
The lyrics come in the second time played (first love, last love…)

This is the same as before but it “speeds up” or to use technical terms, you play
instead of semi-breves.
