Summertime

Verse 1:

Summertime

And the living is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich

And your mama's good lookin'

So hush little baby now

don't you cry

Verse 2:

One of these mornin's

You're gonna rise up singin'

You're gonna spread your wings

And take to the sky

But til that mornin'

Ain't nothin' can harm you

With your daddy & your mammy

standin' by

My arrangement:

Intro: prog-1

Verse-1: prog-1

prog-2

prog-1b

prog-3

Verse-2: (same as Verse-1, except use chords from 2nd-half of

prog-3 instead of chords from prog-1)

Solo:

Verse-1:

Ending: Repeat last line with prog-3 again, then

repeat last line with prog-3b, very slowly.

(It's nice to add a descending scale between the

F9+6 & E7+5 chords. Try an Fmaj scale from middle-F,

and ending on the low-E.)
