NOTHING COMPARES 2 U
This song was originally composed by Prince. This (by Chris Cornell) is one of the best cover versions I’ve
ever heard. If you want to look for this version online, here's a link to the video:

Apparently Chris Cornell also recorded a version of this song without these solos.
If you don’t want to bother with G/B and Am7, you can play G and Am instead.
Sounds good anyway!
ENJOY!
