Title: In progress - Who will be the first.
Post by: Glenn Mitchell on August 08, 2010, 11:55:23 PM

I'm working on an original melody from stolen chords.
Quiz- where did the chords come from?
V1
C-7 Dbm
Let me be the first to say I love you
D-7b5 G7 C-7
let this declaration clear the air
C-7 Dbm
Anyone can say I want you or I need you
D-7b5 G7 C-7
But Let me be the first to say I care

Chorus
Eb-7 Ab7 DbM7
If I can always hold your hand.
D-7b5 G7 C-7
I'd be your blanket on the sand
Eb-7 Ab7 DbM7
I'd be the waves upon your shore
D-7b5 G7 C-7
I will never leave you needing more
Solos
Chorus
V2
Let me be the first to say I love you
Let me hold you every night
Give you everything you needed
Tell you everything's alright.
end
Give you everything you needed
Tell you everything's alright.
everything's alright.

They're jazz chords (simplified) from the classic Blue Bossa by kenny dorham.
Just about everyone in jazz has covered it.
A nice Latin version:
