*Autumn Breeze Mix*
[Transcribed by TNT SHWE]
Notes:
Okay, I’ve heard the album version and it seems to differ a
little from this one, but this version from the single release was the
only version avaliable to me! I assume the Autumn Breeze Mix is in the
same key as that on the album and also fea tures the same lyrics, but when
I find out for sure, I’ll get back to you!
