I am hoping to play this song sometime soon.
I have versions by Lloyd Green (steel rides)
and Jimmy Day with Herb Remington (A Day with
Remington).I love the melody but I cant trust my ear on the chords.If somebody has the time to chart them here it would be a great help.
Thanks. |

I'm adding in the D chords, you could get by without them.

Check out Buddy Charleton's arrangement on
the "Almost to Tulsa" collection. Has a nice easy swingy feel, and is a terrific version. |

Lloyd Green has a nice arrangements complete with a large horn section, very smooth and retro. Believe it's on "Steel Rides" album.
