Howl's Moving Castle: Merry Go Round of Life (Jazz ver.) Guitar Tutorial

Howl's Moving Castle: Merry Go Round of Life (Cafe style) Guitar Tutorial.

Transcribe Summary

Do = Cm, 3/4

If you're not familiar with Do in minor, think about Bb instead. I'd say this arrangement is quite complex, mainly because I'm still not familiar with minor chord progression. I'd suggest you to read the numeral notation instead because it will make more sense.

Verse

This is the first half of verse part.

VERSE

Cm9   | D7   | Gm7  |      |
Cm7   | F7   | BbM7 |      |
E7dim | A7+  | Dm7  | Csus |
Bb7   | A7   | D7b9 | D7   |

Continuing to the second half of verse part, we have a slightly differennt chord on the second row progression (see below) and few added notes. Then we prepare to enter the chorus part.

Cm9   | D7   | Gm7  |      |
EbM9  | F/Eb | Dm7  | A7   |
E7dim | A7   | Dm7  | Csus |
Bb7   | A7   | D7   |      | 
guitar-tab (v1)

Chorus

On chorus part, for a slight moment we can hear that the chord progression resolved to Bb.

CHORUS
Eb/F Bb6/9
Eb/F Bb6/9
Dm7 Dm7/A Fm/G# E7dim
A7 Dm Bb7 A7
D7/A Gm7 C7/G FM7 Eb9 D7
Gm/D D7 D7b9 Gm6
guitar-tab (v1)

What's Next?

This transcribe is yet to be fully completed. While the rest of the chord progression are not much different from what I've transcribe in this post, the moving bass part is quite difficult to follow. There's still so much to learn, so I'll continue to transcribe this track few weeks ahead.
