When We Were Young Adele
INTRO
Piano arr. for guitar
[Cm] [Eb/G] [Ab] [Eb/G] [Fm7] [Eb/G]
|-----------|-----------|------|------| Note: Chord versions are using Gm instead of Eb/G. |-4----4----|-4----4----|-4----|-4----| In the video, at 0:47, you can see the pianist's |-5----3----|-5----3----|-1----|-3----| finger playing the Eb note, the bass sounds a G, |-5----5----|-6----5----|-3----|-5----| that's why I conclude it's an Eb inversion, not |-3---------|-----------|------|------| a Gm chord. |------3----|-4----3----|-1----|-3----|
