It has an unusual key change, that makes it hard to play with open position chords--the easiest transposition to play is in the key of A, because the bridge is in F--

I didn't key it to the lyrics, because you wouldn't have any idea how the chords fit into the measures--If you play it as I have written it out, you will have no trouble figuring out how the melody fits over it-

There is one measure of four counts between each of the slash marks, (music convention is that you write two chords per measure, even when they are the same chord), it makes it easier to follow-- play two down strokes on each chord--

Make up your own intro--

|A-A/F7-E7/A-A/F#7-F#7/Bm-Bm/Dm-Dm/A-B7/D7-D7|
|A-A/F7-E7/A-A/F#7-F#7/Bm-Bm/Dm-Dm/A-D7/A-A|
(Bridge)
|F-Dm/Gm-C7/F-Dm/Gm-C7/F-Dm/Gm-C7/F-Dm/Gm-C7/
F-Dm/Bm-E7/
A-A/F7-E7/A-A/F#7-F#7/Bm-Bm/Dm-Dm/A-D7/A-A|

Please let me know that you got this--I I posted Green Dolphin Street for somebody and never found out if they got the chords--(check that out, it is a great song!)
