sorry to bother you again, but i had one more string of questions about the ending of the song. First, is Bb7 the same as Bb Major 7? If I wrote this down right, the 8 bars after the bridge were |Cm7 F7 | Cm7 F7 | Bb Major 7 | Bb Major7 |Dm7 G7| Dm7 G7| G7 | C7 |. So do you replace the last two bars with F, two strums, Bb7 (or Bb major 7?) for two strums, and then F again for four strums? Or do you add the F to Bb7 to F after those 8 bars?

@jrcboise The chords you describe ARE the bridge. BbMaj7 is different from Bb7. After the bridge you would play another 8 bars that are the same basically as the 2nd 8 bars (which are nearly the same as the 1st 8 bars). The form of the song is A A B A, where A is the first 8 bars, and B is the 8 bar bridge.

I just want to say thank you so much for making these lessons. I recently had a guitar evaluation and chose this as a free song to play. I got an A :D. Just wanted to say thank you so much!

I really enjoyed your lessons! :D

@Blackwatch555 wow, that's awesome and congrats!

Your version of Jim cannot be seen. You can return to hang it. It is important. Thanks

[guitaress1]

It's there. There's a scroll wheel you have to turn to see it. (I don't like the new YT format, but what can you do.) Thanks

This was a very informative series, but more importantly, an absolute delight to watch and listen to. You sang it sort rather beautifully. Thank you.
