This is an earlier version of the song that can be found on their rarities disc "The White Elephant Sessions". A few lines from the verses were swapped around before the final version was recorded for "If I Left the Zoo". The chorus is also completely different in this version - it's darker, more in line with the desperation of some of the songs on "Much Afraid". It's interesting to note that this version of the song does not actually contain the word "Grace" in the lyrics, which makes me wonder if that was the original title of the song. (The word appears in the chorus in the final version.)
