25 May 03 - 04:10 PM (#959012) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Tie Me to Your Apron Strings From: kendall What key, Jim? |
25 May 03 - 04:21 PM (#959018) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Tie Me to Your Apron Strings From: kendall If you do it in "C", try this combo; C F C G C F C G C in th weird part try Am Em C F D7th G C F C G C You can of course use some 7th, such as between the C and F and G 7th between the G and the C I'm sure there are more complicated ways to do this, stuff it full of "uptown" chords, but, I'm just plain folks. |
