John Lennon - Imagine

Played 20091219: Not bad, play slowly and on rhythm. Then work up in speed to the pace of the song. I added lyrics to the tab below; in general, each phrase is sung somewhere around the first and second beat of every two measures, i.e., four measures will have two phrases sung. The tabber uses "&" for Coda and "$" for Segno. Lyrics during the first play at "$" follows (1) and during the second play follows (2).

I=[C][F][C][F]
II=[F,Am/E][Dm,F][G,C/G][G7]
III=[F,G][C,E7][F,G][C,E7]
III'=[F,G][C,E7][F,G][C]
Where the chords Am/E and C/G are played by holding Am and C but just at the appropriate strings.
