At this point in the song, the keyboard plays the chords, and the guitar just holds a D
note until the outro. The keyboard could be replaced by another guitar playing the
following chords:
| Gadd9 | "" | Em7 | "" | C#m7b5 | "" | Bm7 | A | (x2)
All together, these are the chords created:
| Gadd9 | "" | Em7 | "" | C#m7(B5,B9) | ""
| Bm7 Aadd11 | (x2)
