24 Sep 04 - 11:32 PM (#1280537) Subject: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: GUEST,Max I urgently need the chords to the VERSE ONLY of the old 50's hit, "Dream". Damned if I can nut them out - and I worked out "Lushlife" by ear! Please help, people! Max |
25 Sep 04 - 06:16 AM (#1280634) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: Leadfingers The verse is a straight Major , Minor , Dominant , SubDominant Or C Am F G all the way through . The 'middle eight' is a bit more complex - F G C F G D G or thereabouts . Hope that helps , though i dont give guarentees as this is dredged up from learning by Osmosis . |
25 Sep 04 - 12:15 PM (#1280764) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: s&r Dead right for the verse. Two beats on each chord. Middle eight is more like F///C///G7///C///F///G7///D7///G7/// Stu |
25 Sep 04 - 12:23 PM (#1280772) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: GUEST No way Stu. Middle eight is F///Em///Dm/G7/C/C7/F///Em///D7///G7/// |

25 Sep 04 - 12:51 PM (#1280802) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: Leadfingers The Minors in the middle eight are a lot better - Never actually played the song exccept backing someone else(playing Whistle-NO Chords) . Never Trust Osmosis ! |
25 Sep 04 - 03:46 PM (#1280928) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: Joe Offer Which "Dream" song are we talking about - the Everly Brothers' "All I Have to Do Is Dream"? That one and lots of others are in this thread (click), but no chords. -Joe Offer- |
25 Sep 04 - 08:06 PM (#1281085) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: Murray MacLeod Yes, Joe, it's "All I Have to Do Is Dream". Incidentally, I was the un-named GUEST 12.23 |
25 Sep 04 - 08:34 PM (#1281090) Subject: RE: Chords rqd: Dream (verse only) From: George Papavgeris Each day I climb - on the scales only to find - my eyesight fails unable to see, I'm as happy as can be and dream... dream-dream-dream... each night I wake - with delight and down the stairs - I tiptoe light- ly and in the dark, find comfort in a bite and dream... dream-dream-dream Just a little treat, only just a bit, any time, any place just a piece of cheese - gee-whiz it never was more than a trace! For when I climb - down the stairs I know I'll find - my comfort there the joy on my face - only blankets my despair for cream... cream-cream-cream Every meal I ate - helped me to forget what it says - on the scales so tomorrow please - gee whiz I pray they will tell no more tales For when I climb - down the stairs I know I'll find - my comfort there the joy on my face - only blankets my despair for cream... cream-cream-cream George Papavgeris, late Saturday night - inspired by a Mudcat thread. And a double Glenmorangie. |

27 Sep 04 - 12:49 AM (#1281971) Subject: RE: Chords Req: Dream (verse only) From: GUEST,Max Sorry guys, It's "Dream" (by Johnny Mercer I think) eg: "Dream when you're feeling blue, dream that's the thing to do, just watch the smoke rings rise in the air",etc. The McGuire Sisters did it in 51/52 I think It's the verse to THAT song that I'm after. Perhaps I should try a jazz thread. I had it on a John Pizzarelli cd. He's the son of Buckyperga rsesdrcer |
