Guitar Chords: Chand Mera Dil, Hum Kisise Kum Naheen [1977]

 

The song Chand Mera Dil is a beautiful melody from the movie Hum Kisise Kum Naheen. That movie had so many good songs that this one gets eclipsed by the charm of the others. So good was R D Burman with this film. But if you love to play acoustic guitar, then you got to play this song with its simple basic open chords.
The song is in the key of Am. The chords used in this song are:

In the Antra part the song switches to the scale of F for 2 lines and uses these chords:

Then it switches back to Am via G scale.

This brilliant insight was noticed by Jayswami. At first I was not sure but after playing many times on the guitar, I was convinced the Bb was definitely present.
The strumming pattern is very simple:

| 1&2& | 3&4& |
| D--U | --D- |
