Vince Gill did a cover of it on his Souvenirs album that was pretty good.

NEW CHALLENGE ALERT!My goodness...this is the first Book Tag challenge I've posted for 2020...and we're in the last quarter!
Here you go!!
Book Tag #18
BOOK TAG CHALLENGE #18DURATION: 3 MONTHS FROM START DATE
Below is a list of 10 'tags', also referred to as 'shelves'. The challenge is to find and read a book for each tag. In order for the book to count, the tag (or shelf) must match exactly. Please Note: The requirement for the tag (or shelf) to be listed within the first two pages of the book's most popular shelves has been eliminated...this is different from the previous Book Tag challenges. As long as the tag appears for the book, it counts. This is the "new normal" for the Book Tag challenges going forward :) Also, please keep this in mind: Everyone here on Goodreads has the opportunity to create and add to shelves. Using the tag "childhood" as an example, you are very likely to find books that have nothing to do with "childhood", but may also be tagged with a preferred genre and therefore easier for you to read. So don't let the tag scare you away :)
To find a list of tags for your book, click on the book's home page, then click the link - 'see top shelves', found just below "Genres" on the right side of the page. The first page of shelves will populate. Down at the bottom will be a list of page numbers, where you can access all the other pages of shelves for the book.
Recently, I found this link. I'm not sure how much it will help, but I will post it here just in case: Genres
You may start the challenge at any time. The end date will be three months from your start date.
