• Song:

    Sweeney Todd - Johanna Quartet

  • Artist:

    Misc Soundtrack

This was really difficult to do. These chords were nowhere on the internets (or at least where I
could find them), so I got my Sweeney Todd music book and I played with the piano music until I 
finally was able to get this done. It's not perfect, but it is, if I may say so 
myself, a moderately
good approximation. If you listen to the soundtrack, you'll be able to find out 
who sings what, but 
generally Sweeney is on top, then Anthony, then Johanna. The Beggar Woman does not sing at the 
same time as any of them.
Have fun!
