version 2
*** Chord chart (4/4)
Intro
(G) | C / B7 | G#6 / G6 | C / B7 | G#6 / G6 |
Verse 1
| C / B7 | G#6 / G6 | C / B7 | A7 |
| F | Fm | C / G# | G |
You can add a 6th to the F & Fm chords (F6, Fm6); it goes great
with the melody. You can also play G#7 and G7 instead of G#6, G6, G#, G.
Verse 2
| C / B7 | G#6 / G6 | C / B7 | A7 |
| F | Fm | C / G#-G | C / E7 |
In measure 7 of verse 2, C two beats, G# one beat, G one beat.
Last measure leads to the bridge:
Bridge
| A / F#m | Bm / E7 | A / F#m | Bm / E7 |
| A / F#m | Bm / E7 | A / F#m | G# / G |
The bridge is based on a classic jazz I-vi-ii-V progression in the key of A
(A-F#m-Bm-E7). Guitar chords are nearly impossible to hear in the recording,
so voicings are just suggestions.
You can add a 7th to minor chords (F#m7, Bm7).
