Oh Shangri La Lyrics

This song is in the key of D. The four main chords are D, G, A and Em. There is also a Gm.
D: 232002
Em: 000220 (030220 = Em7)
G: 330023 (x30023 = alternate emphasis)
A: 022200
Gm: 333553
The Em v. Em7 is a tough one to call. If you listen to the background vocals, they
clearly descend
to note G (the ?3? in the Em7 chord above), but I believe Jon is simply playing an Em
and letting
the vocals create the dissonance. You can play it either way if you're singing; play Em7
if you're not.
Unfortunately I don't know most of the lyrics. But the verses play out in the following
way rhythmically:
(following an intro, which is simply an A chord:)
D D Em A (repeat)
For help, I'll write the chords over one of the lyrics I do know.
This jukebox won't play no Sinatra
It just curses all night long
There's no easy spoken mantra
Put me back where I belong
Then, the ?chorus? is played like this: (all single strum once first Gm is played)
(Oh Shangri La, why can't I find you
and your faded promises)
I've seen it in your eyes
A wanted man's disguise, and a million bad highs
The lights had all gone red, the 4 am dread
Then you make sense like the star that you are, oh Shangri La
Then back to the verse (D D Em A), then chorus once
more (Gm D). Following the second chorus:
Oh Shangri La
Oh Shangri Laaaaaaaaaaaaa
Then finally, there's the intro to the last minute and a half:
Ohhhhhhhhhhh Ohhhhh Ohohhhhhhhh
etc.
