rhythm is right, keys are right, but some chords are missing and others just don't cut it *missing* : the two initial verses are NOT identical, in the second there's passage C/ *Em* /Am/ *Am7* (or possibly a Csus2) before passing on to F and a G. - in the second part, with the key change, this also applies: D/F#m/Bm/Bm7 (possibly a Dsus2) and then there's also no Em on "answers gonna come", it's again G (where in the first 2 verses there's an F) *missing* : C7 after the C11 in the progression " - C11 - "of a - C7 - better land... - F - where all..." (same in the second verse with "of a warmer sun...") *missing* after the bridge, just before the key change to D, on chorus "..he can flyyyyy..." there's an *A**#maj7* , *not* an A power (or F#m7 if you play the E); from the A#maj7, (4 fingers in a "ladder" starting from G# - 4th fret on high E chord) by raising the index to the A (5th fret on the high E string) you go to an A chord, practically (form of E , bar on the 5th fret) and then a natural key change happens, from A that "exits onto a D. *doesn't really cut it* : A+ on " - D - there's a - *A+* - beckoning - G - candle..- G#dim - " *doesn't really cut it* : on "if I can dream..." there's again a G#dim, then an Em, "please let my - Em - dream..." but this is made like in the form of a Dm7 raised two frets to Em but left open at the E and A strings; just the G is raised to A, on the G string. this is the optimal form to pass to the final Asus4 (just lower one finger from A# on the G string to a F# and you get an Asus4) before the closure.

*missing* : the two initial verses are NOT identical, in the second there's passage C/ *Em* /Am/ *Am7* (or possibly a Csus2) before passing on to F and a G. - in the second part, with the key change, this also applies: D/F#m/Bm/Bm7 (possibly a Dsus2) and then there's also no Em on "answers gonna come", it's again G (where in the first 2 verses there's an F)
*missing* : C7 after the C11 in the progression " - C11 - "of a - C7 - better land... - F - where all..." (same in the second verse with "of a warmer sun...")
*missing* after the bridge, just before the key change to D, on chorus "..he can flyyyyy..." there's an *A**#maj7* , *not* an A power (or F#m7 if you play the E); from the A#maj7, (4 fingers in a "ladder" starting from G# - 4th fret on high E chord) by raising the index to the A (5th fret on the high E string) you go to an A chord, practically (form of E , bar on the 5th fret) and then a natural key change happens, from A that "exits onto a D.
*doesn't really cut it* : A+ on " - D - there's a - *A+* - beckoning - G - candle..- G#dim - "
*doesn't really cut it* : on "if I can dream..." there's again a G#dim, then an Em, "please let my - Em - dream..." but this is made like in the form of a Dm7 raised two frets to Em but left open at the E and A strings; just the G is raised to A, on the G string. this is the optimal form to pass to the final Asus4 (just lower one finger from A# on the G string to a F# and you get an Asus4) before the closure.
any tutorials, tablature or sheet you are aware of that illustrates this correction?
