TEN O' CLOCK IN TORONTO (Christine Lavin)
-----------------------------------------
[Actually in C#; capo 6.]
[The parts that say "G(9) G" are often a complicated mix of
 G(9), G, and G6.  Same deal for "Em(9) Em7".  See the end
 of the file for details.]

CHORDS:

In the intro and ending, she plays the G & Em parts something like this:
(d=strum down, u=strum up, p=pick just the lowest 1 or 2 strings;
capital letters are accented.)

|G(9)            |  G   G6  G     |G(9)            |  G   G6  G     |
|P   D u D u d U |d U d U d U d u |P   D u D u d U |d U d U d U d u |
|^   ^   ^   ^   |^   ^   ^   ^   |^   ^   ^   ^   |^   ^   ^   ^   |

|Em(9)         Em7      Em    Em7 |Em9           Em7     Em     Em7 |
|P   D   d u d U |  u d U   u D u |p u D U   u d U |  u d U   u D u |
|^   ^   ^   ^   |^   ^   ^   ^   |^   ^   ^   ^   |^   ^   ^   ^   |

G(9)=320203; G=320003; G6=322003; Em(9)=024000; Em7=020000; Em=022000

In the instrumental parts at the end of each verse, and to some
extent within the verses, she plays the G chords with a sharper 2/2
feel (one TWO three FOUR); the Em's get a little sharper, but not as
much as the G's.  And note that the subtle chord changes aren't as
pronounced in the parts that have words.
