Song: What I Really Want To Say
Artist: Steven Curtis Chapman
CD: Speechless
(P)&(C) 1999 Sparrow Records

Tune high e string 1/2 step up; tune all other strings 1/2 step down
(low to high Eb Ab Db Gb Bb F)

I'll name the chords by shape, not actual sounding chord
(i.e. E is really Eb, A is really Ab, etc.) When I'm writing the chords
above the verses, I'll usually use an abbreviated version
(E instead of Eadd9, etc.)

Also, due to the altered tuning (high e string) I'm not certain how
to name some of these chords--corrections are welcome.
