This is a piano tune on the record, but harmonically it is an almost exact copy of “Simple twist of fate”, and can preferably be played on guitar in open tuning (E or D), with the chords 054000, 044000, 034000, 020120, xx5450, 000000, 222222 (or even better 020220), x02100, 000000 for the verse and 021020, 000000, 010010, 021020, 000000, 021020, 000000, 222120, x02102 (or -00 or -20), 000000 for the bridge. Got that...?
In standard tuning it is most easily played using G as tonic, but I give it here in C, as that is closest to the key of the recording. Capo 1st fret (Original key Db major).
C x32010 G/b x20003 (could even be played as an Em/B:x22000) C7/Bb x10033 F/a x03211 Fm/Ab 433111 C/g 332010 D9/f# 200210 or 202210 G11 333211 (w/thumb) or 3x3211 C+ x32110
C G/b When the rain is blowing in your face Gm/Bb F/a and the whole world is on your case Fm/Ab C/g I could offer a warm embrace D9/f# G11 C to make you feel my love When evening shatters and the stars appear and there is no one there to dry your tears I could hold you for a million years to make you feel my love
F C I know you haven't made your mind up yet C+ F C but I would never do you wrong F C I've known it from the moment that we met Dm G no doubt in my mind where you belong
I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue I'd go crawling down the avenue Oh there's nothing that I wouldn't do to make you feel my love The storms are raging on the rolling sea and on the highway of regret the winds of change are blowing wild and free you ain't seen nothing like me yet I could make you happy, make your dreams come true nothing that I wouldn't do go to the ends of the earth for you to make you feel my love
