Death Of An Unpopular Poet chords by Jimmy Buffett

Chords with lyrics

Here's a stab at one of my favorite Buffet songs. Corrections and
suggestions are welcomed. The slash notation for those unfamiliar
with it just indicates the bass note played with the chord. For
example G/F# is a G+G chord with an F#F# bass note

Also, excuse my ignorance here - not knowing the name of the chord, but I
typical use the G+G which includes the 'd' note of the BB string i.e.
