Since I Fell For You, sang by Lenny Welch. - Actually written by Buddy Johnson circa 1945 (big band era.) Covered by Lenny Welch in 1963 and reached #4 on Hot 100 Billboard. - Note, this version is 'not' a carbon copy of Lenny's, rather is my attempt to create a 'simplier' and easier (for my arthritic hands/fingers) version to play that hopefully captures some of the same 'spirit' and flavor that his does yet still sounds worthwhile enough to play and listen to enjoyably. - If you're not familiar with this song, please listen to the youtube (link at bottom of song) to get the gist of how it goes. I hope you enjoy it. - Special note and many thanks to my friend, Paul Suttle, for his kind help with this! - - Start as below, sung s-l-o-w-l-y with with single strums like the youtube video does on this part - Cmaj7 F When you just give love, and never get love, Cmaj7 G G7 You'd better let love, depart---- D7 Dm7 G G7 I know it's so, and yet I know Fm7 G7 I can't get you out of my heart--- - - Verse#1 -start regular beat here - Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 You.........made me leave my happy home.........
