| Notes |
+-------+
Listen to the song to get the timing of the chords.
The end of the song is basically oohs along with the chords used for the verses.

Every other line at the end alternates between the C and the Am7 as the last chord of the phrase.

The final chord is an Fmaj9 which is a very dissonant chord.
That is how it is played in the song.
