Hereu0012s my own arrangement to the unreleased Springsteen classic. I arranged
it for guitar and changed the timing a little (of course itu0012s impossible to
transcribe Bruceu0012s timing on this number). Excuse me if the chords are a
little off from the original version, but it stands alone just fine with the
guitar.
