   In the above chords, if you are having difficulty, in the F#m7-5  
drop the
F# bass note and use the open A string. The C#dim you can also drop  
C# bass
note. The Em and C are just regular "open" position chords.
   The song appears on the Sting album "dream of the blue turtles".  
If you
get the song try working out the bass line and play it along with the  
chords.
