grew up with this
The chords are wrong.. it starts in Am7,the Gmaj7..and after it says “I call you Stormy…” it’s a dotted 1/8 rest, 1/16th note, then a new measure ends with a whole note chord of Cmaj9. -At the end of the verses it goes from the Cmaj9 to Cmaj7, and a tied 6 beat chord B7. Chorus goes from Em7 to A6 chords (Old Stormy”.. on the Coda where it says “Bring back that sunny day is chords C, D, Em7, A6.. During the ending solo on the repeat it’s just Em7, A6 back and forth on the Rhythm guitar. My band plays this song at our shows, it’s a wonderful song and people dance to it. I hope this helps you out with the (chords). Thank you for sharing! 🙂
