Venus and Mars [Paul McCartney - acoustic cover]

A version of the opening track from my favorite McCartney/Wings record. Explore the sky; while... Venus and Mars are alright tonight!
I dedicate this version to my former teacher of Astronomy Dieter Hertlein, who woke my passion for planets, stars and natural science in general. Greetings to Pankow, East Berlin.

Greetings from Arlington, Virginia. My mom's from denmark, so cheers to Icelanders. Thanks for the reply. Your answer matches the online tabs, but when I play the em7, it doesn't seem to fit, although your version sounded fine. From the em chord, I just place my pinky on the D to form the em7 chord. Are you forming the em7 differently then me?

My em7: 022030; I checked it out, I really play that chord. To play along put the capo on the 1st fret. But I am sure you already figured that out ... : )

Very cool video, nice voice also. What are the chords after the e minor that go with 'studies the stars, venus and mars are all right tonight'?

[Atomino8]
