WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Marvin Gaye - What's Going On Chords | Ver. 1
Band: Marvin Gaye
Tuning: standard - eBGDAE
So this here is my version of "What's going on",
the chords are not that basic,
but I think that they sound alright with this song.
Should be played loosely to give more of a funky feel to it.
Enjoy!!!
