very very good post dude. yoru sense of harmony is very good. u seem to have a good carnatic base which si good. but dont get into the bad habit of doing every song in C. C is not sa and sa is not C. The song is in Dm, and i am doing this from memory.. so i dont have the charanam and interludes on me.. but main pallavi u missed a few chords.. or got them slightly different.. try mine i will give them in Dm.. Code: Oh! Butterfly Butterfly Dm Gm Dm Bb yen viriththaai siragai wow wow C Dm Gm Bb C Oh! Butterfly Butterfly Dm Gm Dm Bb yen viriththaai siragai yeniayum C Dm Gm Am neeeeeee arivaayOOOO Dmsus2 Bbadd9 unakkaagaaaaa thirandhaen manadhin kadavaiiii EbMaj7 C7 C#dim7 Asus4(7) i will give u reputation for posting sucha beautiful song. edit iam updating chords with correction from my friend kishmu.
The bit when SPB goes "Arugil Nee..." is Cm9th, and "unakkaga thirandhen manadhin kadhavai" ends with a Gsus4 ... got this info from an Ilayraja fan site. What a wonderful song this is!

Cm9 has the Bb note too. Csus2 or Cmadd9 seems better. I have similar progression on Dm scale which is the correct key for the song.
Jay, I have a doubt ... how do you fix that a song is in a particular scale? I tried playing both these versions and the difference is not very discernible to me ... please understand that I am an absolute beginner wrt guitar! Has this something to do with transpositions?
neeeeeee arivaayOOOO Cm9 G# unakkaagaaaaa thirandhaen manadhin kadavaiiii Fm Bb G# Gsus4 in Cm scale Should be Code: neeeeeee arivaayOOOO Cmadd9 Abmaj7 unakkaagaaaaa thirandhaen manadhin kadavaiiii Dbmaj7 Bb Fdim7 Gsus4(7) - (G+C+D+F) but song is in Dm not Cm, The ilayaraja fan site was wrong.
oh i see your point dviduka copied it from VK's site. I hope Dviduka is VK. in anycase VK has a problem.. he has all songs in C!!!! man what a one keyed musicial mind..
I tried out your version yesterday ... and it is fantastic! Much better than the one at VK's site. Great job, Jay! Thanks!
Jay: Good to see you here. Decided to come and post some chords here at last! Jay's chords are right harmonically. I would just call some chords differently thats all (naming conventions) Arugil nee [ Dm(9) ] ....Varuvayoo [ Bb(9) ] Unakkaga [ EbM7] Thirandhen [C] Manadin [C#dim] kadavai [A4(7)] The numbers in paratheses are added notes. Usually a 9th comes with added 7ths, but not in this case as this is "added" 9th. So D9th is D7th(9).
