I‘ll count measures in 6/8 in the following way: ------ ------ ------ (G) (C) (D) means a measure of (G), one of (C) and one of D) unusual chords used: (Cadd9): x32030 begin bridge: ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ (Cadd9) (C) (Bb) (Cadd9) (C) (Bb) (F) (Am) ------ ------ (E) ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ (C7) (F) (F#) (G) (A) (D) (G) ------ ------ (still G) This is then repeated, except that the second time I think that the first chord is (C7) instead of (Cadd9). CLOSING: (Note, I am highly uncertain -even moreso than I am about the rest of this song- about the "accuracy" of the transcription here. Correct me, please!) unusual chords used: I don‘t know what to call these things, but they‘re based on the chord x02200 which I think is either (A5) or (Asus2). The chords and my (incorrect) names for them are: (A): x02220 (A5): x02200 (A)5addF#: x02202 (A)5addG#: x02204 Begin closing: (A) (A)5addG# I‘m trying (A) (A)5addG# I‘m trying (A)5addF# (A5) To find you (A)5addF# (A5) To find you (A) (A)5addG# I‘m living (A) (A)5addG# I‘m giving (A)5addF# (A5) To find you (A)5addF# (A5) To find you The next part I think uses only the (A) chord: (A) I‘m living I‘m living I‘m trying I‘m giving (Switch at this point to (A5) and diddle with it for a while)
