Just Feel Better Chords

   
This is the original version of the song covered by Carlos Santana and Steven Tyler.  
This version has a much more somber mood than the more upbeat sounding Santana one.  I 
have to admit I like Damon's version much better.

Tune down A 1/2 step (D# G# C# F# A# D#, also noted as Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb).

All chords that I named below are relative to standard tuning (even though this song is 
a 1/2 step down) so that I wouldn't have to give chord names that many (including me) 
would be unfamiliar with.

Chords used:

I've got the key to the door,

I know, I know, I know

because it never worked before,
      F                                              C

I'm a little far from the shore,
         C                     Am
and I'm afraid of sinking.
Am                       C
You're the only one who knows me
