KARAOKE - Side A

Simplified chord chart for KARAOKE - Side A (karaoke of TopHits Karaoke), in E at 83 BPM: 13 chords instead of 29, and 52 changes instead of 101. Sevenths became triads (A, Am, B, Bm, C, C#m, E, Em 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 49 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.
