[play: Guitar Figure 1]
Guitar Figure 1
Verse1
Verse notes
The second Am(maj7) might be an easier transition from the Fm(maj7) because
you're just sliding the voicing down to the 1st fret. Just a suggestion...
Chords:
x55433 or 355433
(maj7) x76555
(maj7) x02110
You be words, and I'll be music
Ain't you heard, that's how they do it?
You're a poem when you're on your own
I'll try not to get in your way
But of all the pretty poems I have known,
Baby, you give me something to say
Verse2
Chords:
x55433 or 355433
(maj7) x76555
(maj7) x02110
I'll be words, and you'll be music
I concur, I can't refuse it
You're a sad little tune by yourself
So lovely I wanna sing along
If there's one thing I know I can tell,
when we get together we're a song
Chorus
Chords:
(#5) xxx210
Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's
Words and music, you and I
Verse3
Notes: Same chords as VERSE2.
Listen here, I've gotta say it
It's so clear, the way we should play it
I will carry you, together we'll float through the sky
We can marry too, together just look at us fly
Chorus
Notes: Same chords as previous CHORUS.
Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's
Words and music, you and I

(#5) xxx210
When we fight it's rock and roll
When we make it up, it's soul
And in the meanwhile, freestyle, play-by-ear, improvise
It's clear we go together, it's been like this forever
You and I are words and music
Chorus
Notes:
* these chords have no 5th
Chords:
Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's true
You and I are, you and I are
You and I are words and mu - sic
