Come a long way,        Sing it tonight.

Please note I have denoted the A7 and D7 progressions as A7(prog) D7(prog)in order 
to summarize the notation and simplify the reading. A  string of 'A7 Bm7/A  A7 Bm7/A
A7 Bm7/A  A7 Bm7/A A7 Bm7/A  A7 Bm7/A (which is what it is) only makes it more confusing.

The distinctive strumming on the first beats of signature bars (e.g. A7 D) is up on &3,
 down on 4, up on &2, down on 2 (in 4/4). It then reverts to down on the 1 and 
2 beats. There is some variation, but not on the signature bars (intro, verse etc.).
