Chords

Fixed a few wrong chords, missing chords, and capo placement And the Bb chord in the other tab should be G. I also added a guitar version of the piano. [email protected] Capo fret 3 Cmaj7=X32000 C7=X32310 intro: C F x4

Here's a few ways I like to add color to this by incorporating some of the bass and piano line. All numbers relative to a capo on 3 \ indicates downsrum. / indicates up.
this way for a brighter sound
C \  \/ \      F    \ /\ \      C
---0---------------1----------------0---|
---1---------0h1---1----------0h1---1---|
-0-0-------0-------2--------------0-0---| repeat
---2-------------3-3--------3-------2---|
---3---------------3----------------3---|
-------------------1--------------------|
Or this way for more of a bass thing
C \  \/ \       F    \ /\ \      C
---0---------------1----------------0---|
---1---------------1----------------1---|
---0---------------2----------------0---| repeat
