Just a little note, I'm quite sure about the chords in the chorus, some voices may sing
some notes I'm not
catching, but pretty much the structure is the one I wrote. I am not sure of verses and
pre-choruses, because
it seems like he sits on the tonic (G), and at times sings an F natural, giving a G
mixolydian vibe, so I
wrote G7sus4 which seems to fit. But apart from that, it doesn't seem to go anywhere
else.
On the bridge, same thng, I think is just a G with some pentatonic stuff over it, and in
a certain point the
piano plays something around the circle of fifth which I didn't quite grasp, but is
always on a G bass.
Obviously, at the end of the bridge there is a modulation a half-step above, through his
voices running up
cromatically, and I think is not possible to transribe it this way, so I just put Dbmaj9
at the beginning of
the chorus.
Another thing, on the last "she'll incinerate me" I wrote E7b5b9 which seems to make
sense, as a
tritone substitution of Bb7, but he also sings a G (#9??) and a C (#5 or b13?), so feel
free to play it as you
think is best. Last thing, on the last "but I can't help her giving me her sunshine
smile" he "cromatically"
goes back to the key of G, so I just put Dbmaj9 and then Cmaj9 to finish it off.
Thanks for the attention and have fun!
