Olivia Newton-John released a cover version in January 1973 that reached number 6 in Japan and number 15 in the UK. It was the lead single from her third studio album, Let Me Be There. This version, as well as the song itself, features prominently in the Japanese animated film, Whisper of the Heart.
As of January 2020, the song has also sold 1,591,000 downloads since it became available digitally. For the F chord, you can get away with the “easy” approach of only playing the middle four strings - this prevents you from needing to play a full barre chord, which is more difficult. Chords are either played for 1 or 2 measures, depending on the part of the song. Here’s a look at the chord progressions used for each section.
Understanding the timing of each chord
If you want to use the chords above and play along with John Denver’s official version, you’ll need a capo on the 2nd fret. Without a capo, you’d need to use chords in the key of A to play along with John Denver (which makes a bit tougher, since a barre chord is needed for F#m). Otherwise, you can use no capo and you’ll sound just fine on your own. We do not currently have the separated mixes for all of our instrumental tracks, and unfortunately the audio multi-track conversion is long and complex.

Everytime you see a chord name, play that chord for 4 counts . If you see a slash (“/”), repeat the prior chord for an additional measure.
