It seems to me the chords to the verses were B9 (As above) G#m E9 and the intro stuff following that. I've written this against the lyrics I got from nevada.----UJD B9 Caught up in a world wind cant catch my breath, knee deep in hot water broke out in cold sweat, cant catch the turtle in this rat race feels like G#m7 E9 E-D-B7 A-G-E I'm losing time at breakneck pace. The chorus is quite correct...(As Chuck Dolese wrote below..) except the A and G below should (IMHO) be replaced by A and E9(?)......UJD.
