WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Very very nice. What was Tammy shaking there? I was waiting for Marc to jump in with the lead bit. Marc, you'll have to work on that.

That was a bit of Tupperware Pat half filled with rice as Tammy forgot her shaker. This was the second try out after one run through the day before so Marc and Pierre were playing this basically for the first time... but great idea on asking Marc to work that solo out Daryl! Real troopers all!

Hey TG Canadians that was fantastic. I've got some real fond memories to that song and you folks just put a huge smile on my face. Well done!! Tammy the song wouldn't have been complete without your shaker. What not tambourine this time???

Am
C/G (by moving ring finger to 3rd fret 6th string) to get the walking base line going
Am6/F# (by moving second finger to 2nd fret 6th string and ring finger to 3th string 2nd fret)
F (small f not barre) I'm using thumb to fret the F note... you could use barre if you are fast enough... I'm not!
E

Accentuate the base strings (after the Am), repeat ad infinitum! :-)
Cheers!

Thanks Chris! No wonder I couldn't get it.
Do they make anything stronger than Tri-focals? LOL

That was great guys and gal. Excellent song done really well all around. The sound coming from the shaker was spot on :) .

Thanks for sharing and thanks Chris for posting the chords.

I was humming a lot of parts right along with you. One of my all-time favorites by Chicago. Thanks for sharing that!
