Adam-Francis: Thanks for this arrangement. Could you please transpose it to D to align with the sheet music. This is just so the correct chords get added to the music when the "Inject & Play" button is pressed. Chords can be then transposed into any key by using the transpose arrows to select a preferred key then opening the arrangement. Many thanks!
