Biography:
Jimi Goodwin (born Jamie Francis Alexander Goodwin) is an English singer/songwriter, most famous as lead singer and bassist for the band Doves. He and his fellow Doves collaborators (brothers Andy and Jez Williams) were also once the electronic/dance band Sub Sub. Whilst Doves took a break, Jimi set to work on a much anticipated solo album. Guy Garvey (of Elbow fame) admits he has helped contribute to his friend's music and proclaims it to be "Brilliant".
His album Odludek was released 24th March 2014 on Heavenly Recordings.

Chords in standard tuning:
G = 320033 Bm = x24432 G = 32000x
C = x32010 Am/E = xx2210 Gsus2 = 32020x
Gmaj7 = x20032 Asus2 = x02200 A5#11 = x0224x
Am11 = x02030 D = xx0232 A5 = x02255
A = x02220 Dsus2 = xx0230 Esus4 = 022200
Am = x02210 Csus2 = x30030
In the 2nd half of the song the major / sixth / maj7 progression
is suggested by the vocals and arrangement, but the guitars
just alternate between an A major to Asus2.
I prefer to play the progression...
A = x02220
A6 = x02222
Amaj7 = x02224
Take your choice of which you think works best for you.
