Two-fingered piano riff that leads into most verses:

        This version is        Something like this sounds
        pretty much like       not as 'thin' for one
        the piano part...      guitar playing alone...

        F           G           C       C/G    F

        one thing you must believe
                Bb          F        C
        you can always have trust in me

        turn and swear, it's everywhere, standin' there
