Chords

This an arrangement for the piano, which actually drives the song. I think it's pretty accurate, save a few dissonances which can only be added on a piano. That said, you can play the following chords capoed on the 6th, 1st, or figure out a cool open tuning to do this. The chords line up pretty well with the words. Thanks! !@#$%^ Smilers

         Bbm7/B         F#maj7
I turned stranger into star man

        Emaj/B  F#          C# 
In the Sunday     New York Times

           Bbm7/B         F#maj7
Like Anne Sexton with her star rats,

         Emaj/B     F#      C#
working backwards, 'til it rhymes

F#                   Ebmin              C#         Bbmin
For the love of God, you can't tell me again (x2)

       Bbm7/B      F#maj7         
With a pencil and eraser, 

        Emaj/B   F#       C#
I've rewritten all your crimes

         Bbm7/B         F#maj7
I turned stranger into star man

        Emaj/B    F#     C#_____________
