Guitar chords with lyrics
A augmentedA word of explanation is in order: this was the first song I sounded out when I learned to play the guitar two and a half years ago. Sometime after that, I came across a version of the song in a songbook, which was significantly different, but by that time I was so used to my version that the songbook one sounded wrong. The songbook version uses only four chords for most of the song--Eb, Bb,
C minorCm and Ab, which turn into G, D,
E minorEm and
C majorC in this key--plus a
GbGb (
Bb majorBb) on the "Oh" at the end of the second chorus. Anyway, I hope someone can get some use out of this version (which I think breaks every rule of chord progressions in the book, but...), and I'll try to post some more *official* Maniacs in the future.
