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 :
--------
Bb6/9-5 Em7/ADadd9Bb6/9-5 Em7/A
The outtro uses the same three chords repeating over and over.
Verse :
-------
Dm7Em7/ABb6/9-5
The big man arrives disco dancers greet him
Dm7/GBb6/9-5
Plain clothes cops greet him small town big man, fresh lipstick glistening
Dm7Em7/ABb6/9-5
Sophomore jive beating frantic and snowblind
Dm7/GDadd9Dadd9add4
Romantic and snowblind he says his crime belongs
Bb6/9-5 Em7/A
His eyes hold edith his left hand holds his right
Fmaj7sus2Bb6/9-5 Em7/AA9Em7/AA9
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.
Enjoy !
