Song: Fools Rush In
This is a slightly revised version of the Kraziehat interpretation of Rick Nelson’s
great cover.
Key of A major , again, to match the record with some other chord changes. Added the
missing D minor chord
to the chorus. Substituted C#7 for A in the transition within the chorus.
Bm7 substituted for Bm to lighten the mood. B7:224242. Play as a shuffle.
