Very similar in simple chord structure. But I'll go you one better. Turn the chord progressions into major, switching the somber / downer theme of the music and words to a celebratory / returning from graveside mode. I used to perform it that way up tempo, ending with the Let 'er Go verse slowed back down with big "Like Me" ending. Hey, Barbone; That's Show Biz, kid, eh?
