These chords are my best attempt at transcribing what I hear,
but the song is pretty jazzy so feel free to improvise.
The bass is a very important part of the song. Pay attention to
whether the bass is playing a root note, playing a fill, or resting.
This is especially important in the verses: there is no bass note on
the Bb6 or the F after it, which really changes the feel of the chords.
