This is a song by John Gorka off of his "Jack's Crows" album that I would
like you to post.

I'm From New Jersey
 -------------------------------------
there is one chord in here that i think is a BB something, i haven't been
playing for very long so i don't know what it is, i just know that it sounds
right. when it comes up i'll indicate it w/ an asterisk (*).

 * = x20032

the progeression for the main verses is this:
D MajorD * D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
and the progression for the bridge is :
C majorC B minorBm A augmentedA G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
and then back into the verses.
so it is something like this.
(intro)
D MajorD * D MajorD G+G A augmentedA

             D MajorD
