Joey Albert

Simplified chord chart for Joey Albert (karaoke of TopHits Karaoke), in C at 63 BPM: 11 chords instead of 17, and 52 changes instead of 55.

In this version the sevenths were reduced to triads, and 3 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.
