Ebony And Ivory - KARAOKE VERSION - as popularized by Paul McCartney featuring Stevie Wonder

Simplified chord chart for Ebony And Ivory - KARAOKE VERSION - as popularized by Paul McCartney featuring Stevie Wonder (karaoke of Pinoy Videoke Tambayan), in B at 81 BPM: 10 chords instead of 17, and 33 changes instead of 42. Sevenths became triads (B, C#, C#m, D, D#m, Dm, E, F# and others), which cuts down the shapes you have to learn. Good for playing along all the way through without stalling on a change.

In this version the sevenths were reduced to triads, and 9 changes too short for the hand to follow were merged. A diminished chord appears as minor — that is a substitution, not an equivalence: it sounds close when you are playing along, but it is not the same chord. For the harmony as it is, use the full version.
