I Got Rhythm — George Gershwin
Chords and lyrics for I Got Rhythm by George Gershwin (key of C).
Verse 1
These are the "Rhythm Changes" in C and in open position, which makes them
more difficult. With practice they get easier and this is a great key for
baritone voices. They sound a little too fat for jazz, but oh well! This is
just the chorus.
[CM7] [Am7] [Dm7] [G7] [Em7] [A7] [Dm7] [G7]
(you don't HAVE to play the bottom 3 strings on G7 which with the
fast chord changes makes it much easier)
[CM7]I [Am7]got [Dm7][G7]rhy---thm
[Em7]I [A7]got [Dm7][G7]mu---sic
[CM7]I [Am7]got [Dm7]my [G7]man
[Em7]Who could [A7]ask for [Dm7]anything [C]more
Then you repeat the same chord changes for the second half of the chorus
with new lyrics
[CM7]I [Am7]got [Dm7][G7]dai---sies
[Em7]in [A7]green [Dm7][G7]past-ures
[CM7]I [Am7]got [Dm7]my [G7]man
[Em7]Who could [A7]ask for [Dm7]anything [C]more
