Blue Moon.
Okay, Blue Moon.
Let's see now.
[E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [D] See, I like it in here [G] because it's our lounge room.
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ By the way, this guitar [G] was in tune when I bought it.
[N] I just don't know what's going on. _ _ _
_ _ Before I play Blue Moon for you, I want to tell you a little bit about this arrangement.
_ I was _ a struggling young [G]
guitar player in the [A] big city in Sydney back in the late 70s.
_ I was sharing a house with a guy and [G] his partner.
She _ turned [N] me on to Joni Mitchell and he turned me on to Bebop. _ _ _
I came to the city from the country, so I knew all the Hank Williams tunes, _ all the Buck Owens tunes, all the Mel Haggard tunes, all the Bill Atkins tunes, all the Mel Travers tunes.
_ I wasn't quite sure _ _ about Count Basie and people like that.
I was introduced to that music while I was there.
So anyway, I'm starting to get adventurous after being around a few jazz people.
[D] I start trying to work out how to play Blue [N] Moon and _ _ moving the bass around, making the bass like a swing bass player.
_ Well, I'm sitting there going over it and over it and it was going nowhere. _ _
The guy put his head around the corner and he just said,
Why don't you put the bass through the chord changes?
I said, What do you mean?
He said, Do this.
So [C] instead of [B] going,
[A] _ [G] _ [F] _ [Gb] _ [G] _ [C] _
_ [B] _ _ [G] _ [F] _ [Gb] _ [G] Blue [C] [B] Moon, [D] _ [G] _ [F] you saw [G] me standing [C] [B] alone, [A] _ [G] _ [F] without [G] a dream [C] in my [B] heart.
[G] Without that, he showed me how [C] to go like this.
[B] Blue Moon, _ [G] _ [Fm] [Em] you saw me [Db] standing [C] [Bm] alone, _ [G] _ [F] _ [Ab] without a dream [Am] in my heart.
[G] _ [Gb] _ [F] Without that, he showed me how to go like [C] this.
[G] So the bass filled out the chords, then I had to just fill the rest in and I had to figure [N] out how to do that.
So he gave me the idea and then I worked it all out and all of a sudden everyone thought I was a genius. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ So, here's the [C] bass [Bm] _ [G] and _ _ the drums.
_ [Am] _ _ [N] Here's the [Em] chords.
[Am] _
