Dm7 Dm6 G7/D Dm7 Dm6 G7/D Where it will go __ [End] Notes. 1. This version arose from an attempt to harmonise the melody on an acoustic without barre chords. It differs structurally from any previous versions in that it matches the distinct three chord outro on the Instrumental. It also adds some extra texture to the latter part of each Verse and adds a haunting quality to the Bridges. 2. The transitional chords 'Dm7-Dm6-G7/D' are successively created by lifting off one finger at a time from the three-fingered 'Dm7'. 3.
