You - Carpenters

Simplified chord chart for You - Carpenters (karaoke of KaraokeyTV), in D at 70 BPM: 8 chords instead of 16, and 23 changes instead of 94. Sevenths became triads (A, A#, Am, D, Em, F, F#m, 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 71 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.
