I want to remember how to post and it may helps someone.
Tempo Approx 177bpm Key G [C harp 2nd]
When Delay sings "drive" thats 1st beat of first measure in the 8 bars---the second to last measure is the turn (#V 2 count----V 2 count )
8 bar I chord vamp (w/ sharp 5 turn)
G7 Well I
G7 1////---------------2//// drive my car-- on the wrong side a road 3////----------------------------4//// I mess with the people---- that I don’t know 5////-------------------6//// Tell u somthin else---I aint gonna do ------[7 D#7// ----------- D7//]----[G7 8 ////] I aint foolin round w/u Well I
I have heard it called sharp V and flat VI, but bVI seems the most used.
Also, I would view it as being part of the last line of the blues verse pattern, not as a turnaround. You could easily add a turnaround to that verse as I hear it.
I am not an expert at chord recognition, so I may be wrong below. Please correct me if I am mistaken.
LATEST EDIT:
I I I I
I7 I7 bVi/V I
This is what I hear, perhaps with some of the chords being 7ths.
Edit: I listened a few more times and made changes to my post. Interesting song. Thank you! I have always liked deLay, but never tried breaking it down analytically.
