Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Half-Step Down (Eb MajorEb AbAb DbDb GbGb Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb)

The closest tuning is E♭. If you want to play along to the It's a Girl version, you need to be just a bit
sharp of E♭. For the original Turn It Around recording, you need to be really flat (so somewhere between E♭
and D MajorD). Enjoy!
