I still havn't convinced myself 100% whether she uses the Dm7/G chord
AND the Gm11 chord - they're almost identical. In fact I think she
just uses the simpler shape (i.e Dm7/G) - but if you like the variation
you can use both shapes.
I'm going to be lazy again and not write out all the words (I can't remember
many of them) - but I'll write out a few phrases I can remember so you
know where the changes come.
Here are the main progressions :
Intro
SIb6/ MIm7/LA REadd9 SIb6/ MIm7/LA
The outtro uses the same three chords repeating over and over.
Verse :
REm7 MIm7/LA SIb6/
The big man arrives disco dancers greet him
REm7/SOL SIb6/
Plain clothes cops greet him small town big man, fresh lipstick glistening
REm7 MIm7/LA SIb6/
Sophomore jive beating frantic and snowblind
REm7/SOL REadd9 REadd9add4
Romantic and snowblind he says his crime belongs
SIb6/ MIm7/LA
His eyes hold edith his left hand holds his right
FAmaj7sus2 SIb6/ MIm7/LA LA9 MIm7/LA LA9
What does that hand desire that he grips it so tight
If I've mixed up words from several verses then forgive me !
As long as you see how the chords fit the words/tune then it
should be easy.
