What do You mean 'refresh' ?

Typing in "refresh" means that someone is making sure your request for help doesn't get forgotten. The threads (topics) appear in order starting with the most recently posted. So if no one adds anything for a while, it can get lost.

Praise wants you to get what you came here for!

The lyrics that are commonly sung, as I approximately remember them(I am sure that there are more verses than this, but I don't know them)--

Lover, one lovely day, Love came, planning to stay, Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting, The setting for love beyond forgetting Through those moments apart Memories live in my heart When I recall the love I found on, I could kiss the ground on Green Dolphin Street--

I have my own rendition of the the chords, as well, but you didn't ask--

My simple chord arrangement:

(Latin)||:CMaj7/CMaj7/Eb9/Eb9/D9/Db9/Cmaj7/Cmaj7:|| (Swing) /Dm7/G7/C6/C6/Fm7/Bb7/Ebmaj7/Dm7G7/ (Latin) |CMaj7/CMaj7/Eb9/Eb9/D9/Db9/Cmaj7/Cmaj7/ (Swing)/Dm7/E7/Am7/B7/Em7/Dm7G7/C6/C6|

The verse has a Latin beat, generally played as a Bossa, but that didn't exist at the time the song was written, so my guess is that it was originally a rhumba--the bridge is a swing beat--

There is on measure between each slash note the repeat on the first verse--I actually like to play a circle of 4ths thing from the B7 measure that would go /F#m7b5B7/em7A7/Dm7G7/C6/C6\ but that is a matter of taste--some people like to play turn arounds at the ends of the phrases, but I think that gets to be too much--
