Whoops, just spotted an error.

The chords in the "D" section are NOT diatonic to A - with the Em,
they're
diatonic to D.

However, it still feels like a change of CHORD, not a change of key,
with
that other stuff being an imitation of the first part. It's similar
to a
blues progression in that way.

Hmmm, I haven't bothered to decipher the Jim's tab (use Nashville
Numbers fer chrissake Jim!) or to learn the tune but it's fairly well
entrenched in my subconscious and I hear it in my minds eye as a
distinct key change.

Why did this tab throw some people for a loop?

'Cause some of us don't read tab?

-S-

I didn't write it out myself, I found it online. When I saw it it took
me all of two seconds to understand it (of course, I had the song in
my head). As you listen to the verse it's pretty obvious that the
progression is three chords with each having three forms of the same
chord. It repeats that with what sounds like a key change. That's what
the tab showed.
