"Town Without Pity" (Dmitri Tiomkin - Ned Washington) [Notes: 1) the time signature is 12/8, but is notated throughout as 4/4; 2) as usual, the chords notated here are a composite of the various parts - I don't think there even is a guitar on the record.] Intro: Bmadd9 Emadd9 / / / / / / / / G9 F#7sus4 F#7+5 / / / / / / / / Verse 1:
