Sleepwalk?

[Tommy Auldridge]

I always thought the chord progression was 1-6m-4-5...My bass player tells me the 4 should be 4m...I guess he is right. What do you think? Thanks, Tommy.....

Tommy,

It goes to the 4 and then the 4m a couple times in the bridge but the rest of the time it is the 4m.

[Dave Mudgett]

It's mostly 4m except it's 4=>4m on the bridge. The last 4 on the intro is sort of ambiguous - it kind of sounds like one is playing major and the other minor. The last 4 on the first two verses is a 4. Just listen to it, I think it's pretty clear except those spots - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBRCvVpknvg - but there is periodically a little ambiguity.

I play 4m except on the last 4 of the turnarounds on the intro and first two verses. I think those 4m chords are essential to the song.

Personally, I think this is one of the greatest songs ever put to wax. Not just for steel guitar, but for anything.

I agree!
