Dil to bachcha hai ji - Guitar Chords

For some time now, I have been trying to figure out the chords for this beautiful song, 'Dil to baccha hai' from the movie Ishqiya. I knew it started with a minor chord, but there was that one elusive chord somewhere which I couldn't put my finger(s) on; internet searches for the chords to that song didn't help either. Nothing sounded right.

And then it hit me. In office. While I was doing something completely unrelated to music - writing code for implementing new business rules blah blah.. It was a 7th chord. And then there was much rejoicing. Within me, that is.

Many thanks to Varun Murali for ironing out a couple of flaws! These chords are accurate, as far as I know :)

Bondhu - Indian Ocean (Lyrics)

Bondhu (friend)a melody which haunts you for hours after you hear the song. The baul tones bring about a very earthy, rustic feel to the song. This is coupled with Indian Ocean's unique sound, and the voice of the late Asheem.

The song features Anusheh Anadil, the first female voice to record a song with Indian Ocean.
