It's all just bits of the jazz philosophy that you'll find in your hymnal.
You [Em] all got the hymnal [N] when you came in, I hope.
_ We're just following along the hymnal.
_ _ This is all just the _ good [Gm] news of the truth, I think.
You know, jazz really _ _ [Ab] _ _
is the best of what we have to [Eb] offer. _
