   Em*    


I don’t know what to call this chord. The only thing I’m sure of is 
that proper musical theory does not include the asterisk. I think 
this chord is what is played, as a full Em chord does not sound right, 
and I believe the base is playing a B, though I could be wrong. 


Em*  C   G   C   Am   G   C   Em*


[Chorus]

Em*           C        G
Everything is new 

                C      
When the sky is blue

Am                     G   C
 You got everything to do


Em*  C   G   C   Am   G   C   

Em (regular Em here) G  Am  C


[Verse]

Em                          G
Jessie quit the army and he started a band
 
        Am                     Em    
he used play that club down at hermosa’s strand

                G                  Am
I think they’re changing the name again


Em                        G
Down in Holland where the windows are big
              Am
The paint the buildings bright
           Em                       G         Am
Cause they figure the rain’s coming who knows when 


[Chorus]

Em*           C        G
Everything is new 

                C      
When the sky is blue

Am                     G   C
 You got everything to do


Em  C   G   C   Am   G   C

Em  G   Am   C


[Chorus] - x2

Em*           C        G
Everything is new 

                C      
When the sky is blue

Am                     G   C
 You got everything to do


[Verse]

[Chorus] - x2

[Guitar solo]

Em  G  Am  C  (2x)


[Chorus] - x2

End on: Em

____________________________________________________________________

I’m not sure about the whole Em* thing. I think playing that during 
the verse sounds better than a standard Em, the low “e” just doesn’t 
sound right. Perhaps someone out there with a clue can help me out. 
Beautiful song.
