GOING OUT TONIGHT (Mary Chapin Carpenter & John Jennings)
---------------------------------------------------------
[Actually in F; capo 5.]
[Each chord is about half a measure.]
[The rhythm is an important part of this song; I'd write it down, but
 I think it's pretty easy to figure out from listening to the recording.
 C is 332010, and C(9) is 330010.]
