In honor of my Chicago Blackhawks winning their third Stanley Cup in six

years last night, I had to learn
this one. This is an adaptation for the acoustic guitar...it is not a
transcription of how the song is
performed on the recording, but the chords are correct. As an added
bonus, this version should be pretty
easy to fit onto one page for printing!
