    Hi Jerry,

    About the song sheet

    For the intro I think the right chords are : G / Gadd9 / G / Gadd9

    For the interlude : G / Gadd9 / Dm6/F# / G / Gadd9 / Dm6/F#

    For the outro : G / Gadd9 / Dm6/F# / G

    Don’t you think so ?

    Best regards

    Alain

      Hi Alain
      Yes the intro is as you say. My copy of the songsheet says that too. Does yours say something different?
      The interlude D minor chord is definitely Dm6/F – The F is an F natural, not an F sharp
      The same is true in the outro
      Hope that helps
      Jerry

          It sounds like I must have realised the error after you got your copy and corrected it.
          Its been a while so I can’t remember now!

    I would have bought this lesson except the only payment method was PayPal and I wanted to use a credit card. The icon on the sight shows Visa, etc, but the checkout process only offered PayPal.

      Hi Gary
      Paypal offers the option to select ‘Pay By Debit or Credit Card after you checkout from JGB. ‘. Click that and when you get to the next page change your country (if necessary) from the US. Then select your credit/debit card issuer from the drop down list and the next thing you see should be the boxes to type in your card number and expiry date.
      This all happens within Paypal, not JGB, so if you’re not seeing this I’m afraid you’ll need to take it up with them but as far as JGB is concerned you should be able to pay with a Paypal account OR a credit/debit card.

        That’s how I deal with Paypal as well. Means you’re double protected. Pay via Paypal and use a credit or debit card to pay inside your Paypal account. I pay as much as I can via Paypal. It means your cards aren’t being stored by everyone you are buying from, just Paypal and your card is protected as are your purchases as if using a credit card. Paypal…the cloak of invisibility.
