Em/D???

Posted by: klsluder <klsluder@...>

Sent this earlier but it bounced. Hopefully it goes through
this time.

Working on Cat's in the Cradle for Father's Day. The version I found online
that I like is in F but played in A (capo 8). All open chords or so I
think. It
calls for an Em/D in the verse. It is a passing chord but I am not sure
what to play. I have tried it xx0000 which sounds Ok, and I have just
played D
which sounds better to me but not quite. Is this a typo or is there a Em/D?
one verse below so you can see what I'm talking about.

A C

My child arrived just the other day;

D A

he came into the world in the usual way.

A C

But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay.

D A

He learned to walk while I was away.

G G/F# Em7 Em/D

And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it. And as he grew

C Em/B A C Em/B A

he'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, Dad. You know I'm gonna be like you."

Found a Parker Fly last weekend. Played even better than I remembered. It
will be mine. O yes it will be mine. My wife dragged me out of the shop
kicking and screaming. It was the wrong color anyway.

Peace
