NOTES:
I came up with these chords while listening to the version of the song
on ''VU'', the 1985 compilation (recorded May 13, 1969 with Sterling
Morrison, Lou Reed, Maureen Tucker and Doug Yule). The first part and the
bridge are entirely piano and vocals while the last part adds drums and a
little guitar. It's a fairly straightforward song. There's a guitar part at
the end that goes like this:
Notation:
/ Slide
e-----------9-----------10-------12---------------|
b----10-------------------------------------------|
g-8/9----8/9-------10/11----12/13-----------------|
D-------------------------------------------------|
A-------------------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------------------|
Repeat until end.
