Tenderly - Jazz Guitar Standard

in music •  6 years ago 

"Tenderly" published in 1946 by Walter Gross and Jack Lawrence is in the key of Eb, and was written as a waltz in 3/4 time, but today the song is usually played in 4/4 time. In 1956 Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong recorded the popular song, and today it is considered a very well known jazz standard.

Chuck plays us his chord melody arrangement on electric guitar using a fender stratocaster.

Tenderly

"Tenderly"
(with Louis Armstrong)

The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can’t forget how two hearts met breathlessly

Your arms opened wide
And closed me inside
You took my lips
You took my love
So tenderly

Oh tenderly tenderly
Oh oh oh oh

[scat]

Oh yes
