Help! "Crazy" by Javier: need the chords O.K., one of the bands I play in (violin and flute) is trying to add a few new tunes to the ol' setlist. They are a cover band that plays mostly Motown, R&B (Isleys, O Jays, Lou Rawls, Sade, Luther, etc.) and a small bit o' blues. They've added two new soul tunes, "Far Away" by Kindred and "Crazy" by Javier. There's a couple of chords in "Crazy" that they use that don't sound right (making it sound more "country" than "urban"  ), and there's a more than a few chords in the bridge of the song that are off. If anyone knows the song and can help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. You can org note me, if ya want.
THANKS! | |

THANKS! From the brief sample I heard of the tune, this is what it sounds like to me. Verse: Gmaj7 Cm7 Cm9/F(bass) D7#9 Chorus: Gmaj7 Cm7 Cm9/F(bass) Gmaj7 *(since only one line of the verse was played, I couldn't tell if the D7#9 chord is used at the end of each verse or just a turnaround for the chorus) Good luck "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

I'll pass this along at rehearsal. . .at least this is a start. If you ever hear the song again, check the bridge for me. . . | |

You're welcome. 
If you ever hear the song again, check the bridge for me. . .
The chances are slim and none that i'll be hearing the complete tune. 
There just happened to be a small sample of the tune on cdnow.com.  Suggestion:
In the future, if you request this type of assistance, you'll probably get a better response if you supply the folks here with some audio file format of the song yourself. 
Peace  "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |
