This song is in the key of D. The four main chords are D, G, A and Em. There is also a Gm. D: 232002 Em: 000220 (030220 = Em7) G: 330023 (x30023 = alternate emphasis) A: 022200 Gm: 333553 The Em v. Em7 is a tough one to call. If you listen to the background vocals, they clearly descend to note G (the "3" in the Em7 chord above), but I believe Jon is simply playing an Em and letting the vocals create the dissonance. You can play it either way if you're singing; play Em7 if you're not. Unfortunately I don't know most of the lyrics. But the verses play out in the following way rhythmically: (following an intro, which is simply an A chord:) D D Em A (repeat) For help, I'll write the chords over one of the lyrics I do know.
DThis jukebox won't play no EmSinatra It just cAurses all night Dlong DThere's no easy spoken Emmantra Put me Aback where I Dbelong
Then, the "chorus" is played like this: (all single strum once first Gm is played)
(DOh Shangri La, why can't I Emfind you and your Afaded promiseDs) GmI've seen it in your Deyes GmA wanted man's disgDuise, and a Amillion bad Ghighs The Gmlights had all gone Dred, the Gm4 am dDread Gm D A G A Then yDou make sense like the star that you are, oh Shangri La
Then back to the verse (D D Em A), then chorus once more (Gm D). Following the second chorus: D Em G A (D) Oh Shangri La D Em G A D Em
G A D Oh Shangri Laaaaaaaaaaaaa
Then finally, there's the intro to the last minute and a half: |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----10----------12-------14-------15-----------17---------19--19---17-----20--| |-------------------------------------------------------------------18-----18--| |-/11------11/12----12/14----14/16--------16/17------17/19----------17-----17--| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
