Here's a lead sheet for a very underrated band, Joy Kills Sorrow - in additional to all the chords, I
transcribed the lyrics myself, so let me know if you have any suggestions.  I count the verses in 6/4 
(generally as a 4+2) and the choruses in 6/8.
With the chords, I tried to get across the color of the full ensemble while keeping it within the realm of 
possibility.  One particular thing to play around with is the inclusion of the major seventh (D) on Eb chords,
especially in the choruses. I only notated it in the final chorus, as that is when it's most prominent, and in
most other places it's the mandolin adding it on top of the standard Eb chord played by the rest of the group.
Still, a fun idea to experiment with.  If you're having trouble with the tune, transcribing this chart down 
three half steps and playing with a capo on the third fret will help.  Have fun!

Here's a lead sheet for a very underrated band, Joy Kills Sorrow - in additional to all the chords, I

transcribed the lyrics myself, so let me know if you have any suggestions. I count the verses in 6/4

(generally as a 4+2) and the choruses in 6/8.

With the chords, I tried to get across the color of the full ensemble while keeping it within the realm of

possibility. One particular thing to play around with is the inclusion of the major seventh (D) on Eb chords,

especially in the choruses. I only notated it in the final chorus, as that is when it's most prominent, and in

most other places it's the mandolin adding it on top of the standard Eb chord played by the rest of the group.

Still, a fun idea to experiment with. If you're having trouble with the tune, transcribing this chart down

three half steps and playing with a capo on the third fret will help. Have fun!
