Hammond, glad all is good!! no harm, no foul. After playing those chords over and over. I could hear where the progression was going on that last chord, and it was nice. Below is what I was hearing from your arrangement. I modified some of the chords, just because it was more comfortable for me to play, but kept the root chords of your progression.
LH/RH Chord-Degree-Lyric
C/BDEG - 1 - God
BbAb/CE - Has
AbEb/GBbCEb - Smiled
GF/GCDF - on
CE/ADG - 1 – me
Here is 1 spot I would have probably stayed at the 1 & just change chord selection back to original degree 1 chord used on Lyric “God” above, although I’m guessing you were using the circle of fourths to get from the “Bb” chord back to “Ab” which works too.
C/BDEG - 1 – He
Eb/GCDbF - has
AbEb/GBbCEb – set
GF/GCDF - me
This was the chord in question, but now I see that you just modified the chord selection and used a flat 5. I still prefer going back to the 1 chord above “CE/ADG”, but that is musical preference, after playing over, it sounded good both ways.
***CE/ADF# - 1 – Free
I am still learning, and this rendition helped out a lot (I never would have thought to play it this way). If you have time I would like to see how you would do the rest of the song and if I’ve made errors in the theory above, let me know. I like this so much, I attempted to complete the song progression below.
Passing - Bb/AbCDG
Passing – Ab/AbCDF
E/GBbDG – God
AF/BbDbFBb, AE/AC#EA – Ha -as
DC/FACE – Smiled
ED/EGBE – on
F#E/F#AC – Me
DC/FACE – He’s Been
G/FAbBD – Good
Db/BEbFBb - to
CE/ADF#A – Me (There’s that chord, nice!!)
