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/ Em7/A Dadd9 Bb6/ Em7/A
The outtro uses the same three chords repeating over and over.
Verse :
Dm7 Em7/A Bb6/
The big man arrives disco dancers greet him
Dm7/G Bb6/
Plain clothes cops greet him small town big man, fresh lipstick glistening
Dm7 Em7/A Bb6/
Sophomore jive beating frantic and snowblind
Dm7/G Dadd9 Dadd9add4
Romantic and snowblind he says his crime belongs
Bb6/ Em7/A
His eyes hold edith his left hand holds his right
Fmaj7sus2 Bb6/ Em7/A A9 Em7/A A9
What does that hand desire that he grips it so tight
