I’ve been working on a 3/4 time strum to accompany the hilarious Roy Clark tune, “Thank God and Greyhound”. I wasn’t able to find uke tab online but found several versions of the chord progression on a guitar chord webpage.
It’s a D major progression, which I transposed to C.
I admittedly tend to hear “ghost” chord changes where they don’t actually happen so maybe it’s just my lack of perfect pitch but as I’m humming along, there seems to be the need for a note/ chord other than holding in F at the word “longer” in the second line of the chorus, and my ear says the C (as shown if transposed from the web version in D) should instead be a minor/ sharp note at “me” (last word of chorus lyrics, line 3) and at “song” (last word of chorus lyrics, line 5).
For “longer” in the 2nd line of the chorus lyrics, I tried Am which isn’t right, and for those words at chorus lyrics lines 3 and 5, I tried Fm which sounds better than “C” as shown by the guitar site, but is also still not right.
Am I mistaken?
