I put the more common note names, not the theoretically correct ones. Otherwise, the piece would either: - start in A#m (7 sharps), or - there'd be Cb, Fb, and Abm chords, the latter making a 7-flat scale. Either way, the first chord destabilizes the rest of the chords in the verse. It's genius. Enjoy! ORDER: V1 C1 V2 C2 BTr FC [VERSE 1]
