I  figured out the  chords  for this  song  on  my  synth. It sounds
best  with  a deep  brass section.  I  guess  you  can use  the  same chords
for  the  guitar too.  Here are the  notes  that  I  play for  these chords

Crappy to play on guitar. But this version is the best. It sticks the most to the song.

Finally, it's right key! All other tabs I met were written in false ones. But in "Turned over a new leaf" there must be just [tab]Gm[/tab].
