Hi!

I  figured out the  chords  for this  song  on  my  synth. It sounds
best  with  a deep  brass section.  I  guess  you  can use  the  same chords
for  the  guitar too.  Here are the  notes  that  I  play for  these
chords:

C h o r d    C h a r t:
----------------------
Cm -  C Eb G
Fm(ii) +second inversion+ -  C  F Ab
Bb -  Bb d F
Eb -  Eb a Bb
Ab -  Ab C Eb
Fm -  F Ab C
G  -  G B d
Ebm(i) +first  inversion+ - Gb Bb Eb
Gbm - G Bb d
Bb(?) - Bb d G
G(i) +first inversion+ - B d G


                        I t ' s    A    S i n
                        +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-

Cm            Fm(ii)       Bb
  When I look back upon my life
              Eb              Ab
  It's always with a sense of shame
              Fm              G
  I've always been the one to blame
Cm         Fm(ii)          Bb
  For everything I long to do
            Eb               Ab
  No matter when or where or who
          Fm               G
  Has one thing in common, too

                        [Really fast]: Cm Cm Cm Cm Fm(ii) Bb
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
               Cm Cm Cm Cm Fm(ii)
     It's a sin
     Fm
     Everything I've ever done
     G
     Everything I ever do
     Fm
     Every place I've ever been
     G(higher)
     Everywhere I'm going to
     It's a sin


At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
     It's a sin
     Everything I've ever done
     Everything I ever do
     Every place I've ever been
     Everywhere I'm going to
     It's a sin


Cm                   Ebm(i)
  Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Gbm                      Cm               Bb(?)
  Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Cm                       Ebm(i)
  Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Gbm                               Ab
  Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
        Bb(?)             G(i)
  And I still don't understand

So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
     It's a sin
     Everything I've ever done
     Everything I ever do
     Every place I've ever been
     Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

While he's saying  this stuff,  play   the  notes  to the  chords
Cm and Fm(ii) really fast with  an  extra C  at  the end of each chord.
Play it in progression.

(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres, quia peccavi nimis cogitatione,
verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa)
          [trans.     "I confess to almighty God,
               and to you my brothers,
               that I have sinned exceedingly
               in thought, word, act and omission,
               through my fault, through my fault,
               through my most grievous fault"]

(Zero!)
