Chords

According to his original 1975 studio recording. If you wish to play in-tune along with this particular version, you need to TUNE almost ½ step sharp. I said almost. Other arrangements get by with Am second chord, but it?s really Am7. You can play the middle guitar solo starting with following notes: B C D C A G E A. G F#, E D B D E D C B D.
