D = xx0232 A = x02220 Dm7/A = x00565 or x00211
F = 133211 Asus4 = x02230 G/A = x00787 or x00433
= 355433 = x02020
Apart from the Choruses, you could play the D-F-G progression all
the way through, but using the Dm7/A and G/A gives a feel of what
the Keyboards/Strings are doing and adds some variety.
