Great chords, thanks! On the part:
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Em C
You know I read it in a magazine oh,ho
Bb/C G F
Instead of Bb/C I prefer a Cm there.
I'd also like to add at the same part between the G and F:
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Bb/C G F
Do 6 stabs of the G chord then play notes E,D,B,C then
Do 7 stabs of the F chord then you can 1/2 step to the note
f# before returning to the Am chord back into the verse.
Elton in a can.
Very nice. My minor corrections:
But they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets
^ In this line, I would switch first to a normal C chord and throw in the C7 on the way to the G. The order you have it, C7, C, G, is incorrect.
Also, the Bb/C chord ought to be a C9 (x32330).
