Poor Butterfly

Judging by the chords applied to this song, many seem inappropriate. After hearing the song played many times on records mostly, the chord changes just dont sound right in several key areas of the song. It is possible it was meant to be played this way all along and was changed along the way, but every version I have ever heard didnt match the changes in this arrangement. Difficult arrangement to play. Bud Pyle
