you can vary the chords a little from the ones given above . for the
interlude ( before the chorus ) i think Dm7 sounds good , but a straight Dm
is fine too .

also , a lot of the G and a chords can be played as Gadd9 and Aadd9 chords ,
to vary the sound a little . for example , try playing x0242x instead of
x0222x once in a while . ( on the original , the piano plays mostly Aadd9
and Gadd9 , instead of plain a and G ) .
