This is a simplified playback version of the tune. All of the chording has been deleted and the last couple measures have been modified to make the melody resolve. The music above comes from the complete version, in which I've included the intended chording.

This is the complete, chorded version of the tune as I composed it, and as is shown above. Its a disaster if you try to play back this version, so if you want your computer to chirp the tune for you, choose the playback version.
