SUPERSTAR - Carpenters

Simplified chord chart for SUPERSTAR - Carpenters (karaoke of Atomic Karaoke...), in G at 83 BPM: 8 chords instead of 12, and 64 changes instead of 72. Sevenths became triads (A, Bm, C, D, Em, F, F#, G), 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 8 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.
