Chords

Attempt to capture guitar chords to play along with the live version from 101: This is a piano song, but I tried to choose chords that allow me to fingerpick and get some of the motion of the piano part from the live version linked above. The C/B is really just a walkup B note on the A string while moving from the Am to the C. Where I have indicated G5 to G*, I play the full 4-finger G* indicated in the chord list but I don't play the high E string until the G* is indicated. I posted a shot to give a rough idea of how I am working on playing it with these chords: https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/shot/movieman42/600916613 [Chords] G 320003 G* 320033 G5 32003x Gadd2 3x0203 Am x02210 Asus2 x02200 C/B x20010 Cadd9* x32030 Cadd9 x32033 Cmaj7 x32000 D xx0232 D7 xx0212 Dadd4 x5403x [INTRO] G Gadd2 G Gadd2 G Gadd2 Cmaj7 Cmaj7 D x2 [Verse 1]
           G       Gadd2  G                    Gadd2
I want somebody to share, share the rest of my life

         Am          Asus2           Dadd4
Share my innermost thoughts, know my intimate details;

               G           Gadd2    G         Gadd2
Someone who'll stand by my side and give me support,

    Am   Asus2           Dadd4
And in return she'll get my support;

         Cadd9*      Cadd9     G*        G
She will listen to me,    when I want to speak,

          Am               C/B C
About the world we live in and life in general,

          C                           G5         G*
Though my views my be wrong, they may even be perverted,

       Am                    C
She'll hear me out and won't easily be converted,

   Gsus4 G                               Cmaj7 C
To my    way of thinking, in fact she'll of  - ten disagree,

           Gsus4 G                   Em
But at the end   of it all, she will understand me.

Dadd4 C           D
Aah - ah-aaaaahh
[Insrumental] G Gadd2 G Gadd2 G Gadd2 Cmaj7 Cmaj7 D x2 [Verse 2]
           G        Gadd2  G                Gadd2
I want somebody who cares, for me passionately;

     Am    Asus2            Dadd4
With every thought and with every breath;

               G           Gadd2        G         Gadd2
Someone who'll help me see things, in a different light;

        Am         Asus2        Dadd4
All the things I detest, I will almost like;

        Cadd9*         Cadd9   G*       G
I don't want to be tied,    to anyone's strings;

    Am                              C/B C
I'm carefully trying to steer clear of  those things,

    C                  G5         G*
And when I'm asleep, I want somebody,

         Am                                  C
who will put their arms around me and kiss me...
N.C. Tenderly
       Gsus4  G           Cmaj7 C
Though things like this,  make  me sick;

     Gsus4 G                    Em
In a case  like this, I'll get away with it.

    D/F# G*                    G/F# Em
And in a place like this, I'll get away with it

Dadd4 C           D
Aah - ah-aaaaahh
