I have been trying to work out the chords for the above piece of sheet music. I know that it is in the key of D, and that the first and last chord will be D. I also am pretty sure that somewhere along the line I have to play a A major chord, a Bm a Em and a G major Chord. But whereabouts do the chord changes occur ??? And is it just a matter of trial and error to hit upon the appropriate Chord at the right time.
I know a couple of pianists whose left hands instinctively gravitate to the correct chord, but I would like to know what their secret is. What upsets me is the fact that I am very , very familiar with the above song, having sung it , and loved it for at least 70 years. Any help appreciated,
Thanks, J.T.
