Chord sequence for Aint Misbehavin`??

Post by Bob Mainwaring »

This has been bugging me for some time and wondered if anyone out there could come back with the chord sequence of Aint Misbehavin` there are some nice full chordal runs I`d like to introduce. I thought I`d got it licked but the bridge is a worry at the moment.
Many thanks in advance.

Hey Bob,
Here's the A part, in C:
(turnaround is in brackets)

|C C#o|D- Ebo|C C7|F F-|
|C C#o|D- G7 |C (A7|D-G7)|

And the bridge:
|A- |F |D7 |A7 |
|G G#o|A- D7|G A7|D- G7|

Some people might prefer to simplify the second line of the bridge, like this:
|G |D7 |G |D- G7 |

Hope that helps.

Many thanks for the comeback John,
I`ll go and try it out right away, we`ve got to do this one tomorrow night!!!!!!!!!

Hope you`re not having too much of the cold stuff happening in your neck of the woods- we`ve been really lucky over on this side with one of the mildest winters on record!!

SmallCap, a small circle following a letter means it's a diminished chord. A standard intro or turnaround would be the one chord,
one sharp diminished, two minor seventh, and the five seventh, e.g. C, C#o, Dm7, G7.
A minus sign is used, usually by jazz players, to indicate a minor chord.
