Much I don't know how but now we're so far out of touch
C G/C Fadd9 ` C G/C Dm7 E7/G#
And I never planned to so mis-un- der-

VERSE:
C G/C Fadd9 ` C G/C Dm7 E7/G#
So here we are so far we're still so
Am Am9 C/D D Fmaj9 ` Gsus4 G
Far from where we know we should be I'm searching for words and you haven't heard

These voicings give a reasonable sound which is not too 'dirgy'.
Bb/C for C13 is the biggest compromise.
Am9 is a passing chord on the 'and' of Beat-2
Harmony returns to Am on Beat-4
A similar passing chord occurs in the CHORUS:
[C] "I [G/C]thought [C]you [Bb/C]knew"
"We would al- ways be"
