Tyler’s Notes on Intro/Chorus
        The Intro/Bridge is comprised of two minor chords in the key of Eb (Fm7 and Gm7)
on top of a pedal note of Bb.  This Bb pedal note effectively transfers the Intro into the
Verse, which starts on a chord with the same root note…Bbm.
Verse
Principal Key: Bb Minor
Bbm                                    Ebm7                                       Fm7
Tongue tied or short of breath, don't even try
                Ebm7
Try a little harder
Bbm                                   Ebm7                               Fm7
Something's wrong, I'm not naive, you must be strong
                 Ebm7
Ooh, baby, try

Tyler’s Notes on the Verse
        The Verse consists entirely of minor chords.  Beggs’ use of Ebm7 and, more
specifically, Fm7, indicate his preference of the Modal Minor over the
Classical Minor.  The fact this section is comprised entirely of minor chords
helps distinguish it from other sections of the song.

Tyler’s Notes on the Pre-Chorus
        Like the transition from the Intro/Chorus into the Verse in “Hang on Now,"
this section changes key and moves up a perfect fourth (from Bbm to Ebm ).
The beginning of this section is harmonically ambiguous and is identified with the “(NC)" symbol,
which stands for “No Chord."  This is often seen in jazz and is a very effective key-changing technique.
It becomes clear that we are in Ebm when we finally hear the implied C#7 chor
as Limahl utters, “You’re…" before the Chorus begins.
Chorus
Ebm        C#            B/F#
Too shy, shy
          B/F#               (NC)
Hush, hush…eye to eye
Last Chorus Variation:
Ebm        C#
Too shy, shy
           B/F#
Hush, hush………..

Tyler’s Notes on the Chorus
        The Chorus is comprised of a fairly basic descending progression.
It is not particularly interesting, as it does not go out of key, but it moves
so quickly and has such a catchy hook that all is made well—and in fact—all goes
PERFECTLY well.  Again, “(NC)" stands for “No Chord," but there are two chords
that are implied: Bbm and Bbm/F
