Broadway - Elaborate Lives chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
There's a bit of picking at the beginning and the end. It's not difficult at all, and you shouldn't have any trouble with it. This is the first version of the song as opposed to Aida's reprise at the conclusion of the show. Tuning: Standard EADGBE Key: G The Broadway version is actually in the key of Gb, but to put off some work, I figured whoever would want these chords would like to have the option of having the original key or a half-step higher.
