Notes on chord notation

For the chords on Songs in the Key of Osho, Sarlo Sarlo uses this notation.

Chord notation used is as explained below

Bracketed numbers refer to notes in the major scale, flatted or sharped as noted. Also please be aware that the chords may not appear exactly in the right place because of the difficulty of exact placement using a text-only table format, and the different ways tables and fonts are displayed by different browsers. I use Arial font for the songs, which you should install if you don't have it (unlikely). I have learned since writing the above that a fixed-width font such as Courier will take care of all spacing issues but it looks weird and takes more space, so i'll stick with the problems noted, never mind the work a change would entail :-)

And as far as browsers are concerned, the chords get most out of line with their words in Netscape. With Firefox, Opera and IE, they are close enough. Other browsers i dunno.
