Need Chord Chart For "MY Weakness Is Too Strong"

Post by Andy Sandoval »

Having some trouble with this tune where it modulates and need to confirm the chords I'm using. Anybody know the chords?

Andy - in the key of C - The change goes to the next 4 chord on each change - start each chord with your "B" pedal down and release it - sort of like a 5-1 chord change.
C to F to Bb to Eb - That gets you to the key you want in the chorus - Let me know if you need more than that........Ron

Graham - I'm probably wrong, but I think you left some out on the first verse
C C D7 D7
G7 G7 F Dm G7
C C D7 F Bb
Im thinking:
C C D D
G7 G7 F-C Dm-G7
C C D D
G7 G7 C F-Bb
Eb (fisrt chord of chorus)

I should mention that I play the modulation (F-Bb-Eb)on strings 5&6 - 1st fret - 6th fret - 11th fret

Graham - I never play it exactly like the original - I always figured that Buddy probably played it wrong :roll:
