C#9(?) F#7aug3rd E7aug3rd VI (some variant of Bmin)

Other than the chords in the above diagrams, all chords are regular bar

chords, except for Gmaj7 and D at "unto a foolish heart" and the E7 at

the instrumental part, which are regular open chords at the low end of

the neck. Most of the action takes place above the fifth fret, one

notable exception being that the Bmin at "never give your love..." is

with the bar on the second fret, allowing easy passage into the VI

chord. Go nuts.
