Song Title: 25 or 6 to 4
Artist: Chicago
Correct Terry Kath Chord Grips By: bmchrestoff
 
IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE NOTES: 1) This is a CHORDS ONLY transcription f/ the faithful and Chicago purist
                                to show what Terry Kath actually used in 1970 when he recorded this song
 
                             2) I did tab out the Iconic Intro because it is so Important. There is one tab
                                on record that almost captured it correctly execept f/one small detail
 
                             3) Donnie Dacus who replaced Terry Kath after his tragic death played the Intro
                                as indicated in the second line below. As a matter of fact several of
                                Chicago's follow on guitarist played the Intro as shown below "live"
 
                             4) There is still a debate as to what Terry was playing on the recording vs.
                                what he was known to play live **Am7/G (See Below)
