Tuning: D G B E
My arrangement of a classic Stephen Bishop song from Careless.
Also covered by Phoebe Snow, among others.
This tune allows for a variety of chord progression moods.
Mine below is quite different from SB, but still holds together nicely.
[Intro]
G C Bm7 Cadd9 G
[Verse 1]
GHi, I Bm7thought I'd drop by, so Cnice to see you
It's Cmaj7been too Bm7long Gmaj7since I was Cadd9holding you

'Cause my Cdreams never Gseem to coCadd9me true

Gadd9Never letting Am7go, it's nCadd9ot that easy
