this is meant to be a transcription of the album version in 4/4 time ,
super cool 70s drum beat , etc , not the waltzy acoustic live version ,
though arranged with an acoustic guitar in mind .

thoughts on the chords :

Am11/E * i’m calling this Am11 even though there’s no 7th , because
0 x it’s the best i could reason . use that second “chord” as the
1 3 alternating melody line in the intro . obviously add in the
2 2 A – C – D bass line at the appropriate place .

Cmaj7 i think it’s nicer to leave the E on the a string out for this ,
0 make it less muddy and helps emphasize the major 7th because . . . – >

C7 – > . . . you almost want that Cmaj7 to sound like the B is on top to
0 make smooth voice leading from the B to the A# . the piano really
1 emphasizes that A# in the second verse ( see c7! )

A7 if you decide to use the 7th in the first verse , i suggest this
0 voicing . in the second verse ( a7! ) , it sounds more like the G
2 should be on top ( 3rd fret , high E string ) . the piano actually
( 2 ) leads it like so : G E C# . pull off the G on the E string to an
2 open E , then emphasize the C# on the 2nd fret , B string .

Dm7 i think this barre chord voicing works nicely . use the high a at
( 5 ) the end of the second verse ( before the chorus ) and during the
6 chorus .

G7 fairly standard voicing , might want to come up with something
1 different . what i really can’t decide is the G6 that comes next ,
0 or whether it’s A G6 at all . let up on the 7th ( F , 1st fret ,
0 high E string ) and see what you think . the “6” ( which is the E )
0 is emphasized in the vocal anyway .

A7b9 Edim/A these two are actually the same chord just voiced
6 3 differently ( because of the relationship of the notes
5 2 in a full diminished chord ) but i’ll name them separate
6 3 for clarity . make sure to voice the melody on top of the
5 2 the chord on the guitar ( A# , A , G , F ) . do this as you see
0 0 fit with the A7 and the Dm in that descending sequence .
( 5 ) ( 5 ) keep that steady 8th note bass line with the open A .

* * * *
g^ just a nice higher voicing for the pre – chorus line and chorus .
7 keeps the B on top of the chord . obviously just add a low open E
8 for the g^/E . you might also look at this chord as an Em7 , and
7 you might also try an Em9 ( add an F# on top , 7th fret B string ) .

Am7
5 typical jazz minor 7th voicing . bar your ring finger across
5 the top four strings , middle finger on the low string .

Fmaj7/G might also be called Gmaj13 , probably easier to think of it
( 0 ) as Fmaj7/G though . in all honesty , not sure about this chord .

Cmaj7 * another typical maj7 voicing but i think any maj7 will

Cm7 so here it almost sounds appropriate just to alternate between
x the notes . let them ring . choose the position to play it on .
x same pattern for that bass line “walk” : A , A# , B , C .

x x x basically walk the bass down for this .
6 6 6 might be interesting on the fourth measure to make
5 5 5 the Dm a half diminished ( G# instead of a in the
7 7 7 chord ) , though maybe not authentic .
