Points to Remember:

• Download and print the PDF, above, to see the TAB, chord grids and traditional score.

• This song features a distinctive 'minor 7 #5' chord which has a '4 stack' (an interval of a 4th followed by another 4th). It has a modern, open sound and is a favorite of Donald Fagan's.

• The intro features chords, the roots of which descend chromatically, alternating between beautiful 'major 9' chords and jarring '#9' chords.

• The song is about an aspiring actress who inadvertently gets involved in 'foreign films,' (porn)!
