this song has beautiful chords and there are a lot of interesting ideas , for
example the loop running through the whole song . i like the single version
better for its great lead vocal , which is missing from the mix featured on
the album . sadly , the mix from the single hasn’t been released officially on
cd . listen to it here :
it’s a keyboard song and it is in Cm .
the chords for the verse look like this :
| F7sus4/A# | G# | D#/G | Fm | G#/D# | A#/D | % | Cm |
for guitar i’d suggest to transpose it to Am so you can have fun playing .
if you want to play along to the original , put on a capo on the 3rd fret .
enjoy!
