I hope to see more simple chord melody arrangements. Exactly what I need. Oh, and thank you!

Thank you for the demonstration. I love this song, it was one of my Dad's favorite songs, along with here's that rainy day... I can remember from when I was very very young, him playing these songs on piano, this tune always brings back great memories. I am going to work on learning this with the assistance of your video. Thank you for sharing this!

Beautiful....as always.
Thanks Chris!

You definitely want to have some knowledge in basic jazz for this song, but the melody is fairly easy. Thanks!

Beautiful Chris; thank you for posting.

HI, Chris, a great version and very useful for all of us chord-melody neophytes. Thanks for posting it.

Beautiful version played with your characteristic depth of feeling which gives anyone the inspiration to want to play the song. The tabs are excellent and clear and the chord boxes always help, particularly for those less familiar with the families of chords. Even if it is for beginners and without (unnecessary) frills it is all the things that the songs is A big thank you from my ancient ES-150.

Beautiful Chris. Your fans (myself included) need to keep hearing you.

Firstly I'm a fan of your playing and picked up a lot of tips from watching the clips. Thank you Chris.
Secondly I've developed arthritis in my hands and can't play the way I used to. It causes me severe depression the last three years.

[PeterPashoukos]

Wonderful. Thank you. Just what I need.

[MoxieCom]

Thanks Mr. Whiteman - I bought the sheet music you arranged. I look forward to playing it. :)

[marinaferraris]

Come sempre ascoltarti e'un Grande piacere

[rickamato]

Thanks! Probably the only one of yours I have been able to play along. l will keep following and practicing! thank you! PS I tried the Jazz Swing strings and they sound great, but aren't as slippery as the ones that came on my Ibanez LJB-30....I think maybe Ibanez Artcore jazz light gage; stainless flatwound strings - IFAS6SL. I hope to find somewhere in the US.

Thank you for uploading this chord melody. Did you thought of it yourself, or how does this process happen? And also I have a little trouble with the last three chords, somehow I can't make them sound like yours nor do I understand them when compared to a lead sheet...

[pierrotbaillif]

Cool j'aime bien, avec un joli son, bravo, très belle guitare, je joue énormément quelques standards sur ma chaine si vous voulez jeter un coup d'œil et surtout écouté, like et bonne journée.
