Green Bird by Yoko Kanno / Seatbelts
Transcribed by Bob Insley
This transcription is all my own.
Note, this is based off the live at Shibuya X piano medley. For the album version,
you drop it a whole step.
I also did not include the melody for the verse, because that's comparatively cake to figure out.
My harmonic analysis is included.
'V' indicates dominant
in the key of G:
(version to the right is an octave higher, what's actually played)
