Help with chords? (Love 2 the 9's, I Feel For You and The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker)

Does anyone know the chords to "Love 2 the 9's" and "The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker"? I'm kind of limited in my knowledge of chords in general so anything that isn't a major, minor, 7th, major 7th, minor 7th or diminished kind of goes over my head.

I don't know anything about Prince's Joni jazz chords so the entirety of "Love 2 the 9's" escapes me but the chords are so beautiful, I'd really like to learn them.

I know the general feel of "I Feel For You" seems to be F#. I think the basic chords are F#, B, E, Bbm7 and Abm7 but I'm not sure what the band plays during the "I wouldn't lie to you baby" part.

"The Ballad of Dorothy Parker" is another jazz-oriented song that goes way over my head. All the tabs I've found on the internet seem to be wrong.

Thanks very much in advance to anyone who can help! I'll post my take on the chords to "The Glamorous Life" later on if anyone's interested.

Thanks so much to both of you! I didn't even know that forum existed. That's really cool...finally there seems to be a good version of "Dorothy Parker" posted. I really appreciate it!
