Chords

This song is played on a 12-string acoustic guitar with the open D ringing throughout the verse and bridge sections. Notes: 1. The Intro section differs very slightly from the verses in so far as the last chord is G/D (0-4-3-3) in the intro and Gm6/D (0-3-5-3) at the end of the Verses. 2. Roger Hodgson adds an extra bar of 4 beats at the end of each Chorus to set up the verses
