capo 1
I put the chords where the bass usually plays the root note of the chord. The guitar
and piano usually play the chord on the up beats. The extra notes in parenthesis are
just notes, not chords. I only tabbed out the extra notes that are featured prominently.
There's some swinging bass in this song, maybe someday I'll tab that too. I hope I got
all these chords right. They're close, at least. In my old age, I sometimes have
trouble hearing seventh chords amid all the solo instruments and walking bass line.
