I love Paris - Ella Fitzgerald
Key: G / Gm
From the album Ella Fitzgerald sings the Cole Porter Songbook
Recent horrific events got me remembering how much I loved Paris.
This version of Ella Fitzgeralds incudes the recitative section which is
in the original, but is often missed out.
Passing chords in () are optional
In the recitative play single arpeggio chords where marked.

Nice work, thanks! I would have thought there were more chords, but listening to the Ella it is indeed that sparse.
The last chord of the Recitative I like a Gaug better than the Edim. Plus at the end to get you back to the Gm in the instrumental. Also
Bm7 Bb7 Am7 D
Every moment of the year
I’m hearing that Bm7 pretty strong. The Bb7 could be a Bbm7?
Am7/D D7 G Gaug
Because my love is near
Am7/D xx0010
I like in the Outro sliding that Edim 2 5 8 11 8 5 2 LOL, old school!
Thanks again!
