Where can I get the piano tutorial for this?

Asked by itsjustcruel (387points) April 4th, 2012

I have searched, but can’t find the chords or a video tutorial on how to play the piano to the song ‘Read your book’ by Soley, does anyone know where I can find it, or know what the chords at the start are?
Heres the song if you are interested:

Lots of minor chords. I’m guessing the key of G minor. Try the chords in that key.

I am currently in the process of transcribing… The transcription will be up soon.

Ok, here is a link to the piano transcription: http://www.4shared.com/office/cYsHM54f/Soley_Read_Your_Book.html?
Note: This is just a rough transcription, I don’t guarantee that there are no errors. Even though I tried not to make errors, there may be some that I overlooked.

As for what the chords are, here they are measure by measure:
5: gm gm [ gm dm dm7 EbM7] (repeat material inside brackets 4x)
4: [cm BbM gm gm] (repeat material inside brackets 2x) gm gm
5: [gm dm dm7 EbM7] (repeat material inside brackets 4x)
4: [cm BbM gm gm] (repeat material inside brackets 4x) then gm repeated over and over again, slowly fading away into the distance.
The 4s and 5s at the beginnings followed by colons indicate a change of time, 4 means 4 beats per measure and 5 means 5 beats per measure. Brackets indicate repeats.
