---&---
I was watching Parenthood earlier, and Sam Cooke's "Bring It on Home to Me" was on in the background of one of the scenes. Since I had my guitar on my lap, I started playing along, and I figured out that it's basically a three-chord song (C, F, and G). But then I realised that the Zombies (sort of) covered "Bring It on Home to Me."
I say "sort of" because they have a medley track that starts off with "You've Really Got a Hold on Me" then transitions to "Bring It on Home to Me" and then back to "You've Really Got a Hold on Me."
So I realised that I could take "Bring It on Home to Me," which I had just learned, and use it to figure out "You've Really Got a Hold on Me." Which I did (it's only five different chords - A, F#m, D, E, and an occasional B), but - typically - it's not in my vocal range.
