Guitar Michael Franks- Chords

Does anybody know where I can find chords for songs by Michael Franks? Is there any sheet music available? I only found a few of them on the internet.Specially I would like to have chords for Down in Brazil.
His chords are simple but smooth & his music is v pleasant to listen.
Any fans out here?

I don't have any, but I checked out his site and he looks like a cool guy. I'm sure if you emailed him he'd send you some. You might have to pay a small fee, but if you dig the tunes that much it'll be worth it.

Thanks.great idea emailing hm ,I will try that.Do you know any other bands/artists that have his sound? I like the cool Jazzy feel he has.Steely Dan is great but too hard to play except for a few songs as I'm not so strong on jazz chords.BTW do you know where I can find Stelly Dan chords online?
Take care.

Check out Kenny Rankin, I think you'll dig him. Also just google Steely Dan tab to find tons of stuff.

here are the chords. It's a great example of plain 11-V-I circle of 5ths:

//: A MA7 / A MA7 / Am7 / D7 /

G MA7 / G MA7 / Gm7 / C7 /

F MA7 / F MA7 / Fm7 / Bb7 /

EbMA7 / EbMA7 / Ebm7 / Ab7 /

DbMA7 / DbMA7 / Dbm7 / Gb7 /

B MA7 / B MA7 / Bm7 / E7 ://

Does he really ride the ii-V-I train all the way 'round in that song?

I thought that was just an Aebersole Excercise.
