Song and guitar tab available only from http://jongomm.com/store You can Pay What You Want for the song, and a percentage of what you pay goes to STEPS, a charity that supports people with clubfoot, hip dysplasia and other lower limb conditions, in honour of my beautiful niece Freya. http://www.steps-charity.org.uk / This is my cover of the Chaka Khan dancefloor classic from 1982.
