I have absolutely no idea how to play "Gotta Broken Heart Again"

Even my music teacher Carlos, who's an orchestra conductor and spent twenty years training in Russia, spent ten minutes listening to it and could not figure out a damn chord.

Anyone got any tips? biggrin

these orchestra guys sometimes have bad ear, it does not say nothing if he trained in russia or is a conductor. My piano teachar had terrible ear and excellent reading. But i dont know the chords anyway, but lots of pople hear can tell you if they will.

dirty mind version

Db Ab/C Bbm Ab Gbmaj7 Gb/Ab (Verse/Chorus)

Abm Db7 Gb Gdim7 Gb/Ab (Change)

If you listen closely you'll hear him play a harmonic on the high E on the 12th fret which means his guitar is tuned a half step down.

During the chorus and the opening solo he is sliding in 4ths.

Now, if someone could post the chords to the beginning of the Lovesexy CD. The "Rain is wet...."part.
