Your Funeral My Trial chords by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

The song has two chords basically, and revolves around the change from G7 to Amin.

Notes in () indicate single notes, not chords. In typical Nick fashion, the chords don't match up exactly
with the words; for timing listen to the record. Finally, during the verse the notes in () are played by
the hammond, while the guitar and piano play the chords. If you don't happen to have six hands,
just do it all on piano.
