I can play the tune, It Had to be You, but my chords are not very good. I would like
to have someone suggest chords, in the key of G.
thanks,

Hi Nick!
Try G6/G6/E7/E7/A7/A7/A7/A7
Am7/D7-D#dim/Em/Em
A7/A7/D7/Daug
Repeat first line, then C6/Cm7/G6-B7/Em/Am7/D7/G6
best, donnie
Awesome! Thank you.
Not to argue with the great D. Stiernberg, but this is how I play it. I use a lot of bar chords. The 2nd part of the B section the G/B7 and G/Bb07/Am/Daug are 1/2 measure each. I'll have to try it Don's way to see if I can incorporate that into my version. Thanks!

It sounds like this (sorry the video is out of sync). If you want, I can record you a separate rhythm only video.
If you can figure this next one out, let me know!

Hi cats,
The D#dim is actually also B7b9.
Sure enough the melody note on the Cm is an A, making that change a Cm6 which coincidentally has the same tones as F7
G-Bbdim-Am-D+ is in the turnaround area and consequently kinda up for grabs...could also be G-E7-Am7-Dwhatever or maybe even G6-Bb7-A7-Ab7..
Sounds like Dawg and Don follow essentially these same changes we are talking about
...and the tune has a good verse to it. Whenever I hear someone today who sings or plays the verse to a standard, I feel that person ought to be given some kind of prize.

You can find the verse in this sample:

Whenever I play Georgia on My Mind (on guitar) I include the verse (because nobody knows it) go into blowing right away on the chorus (because everybody knows it). But there are songs, like My Funny Valentine, where you just have to skip the verse, because it's so incongruous with the chorus (as are the lyrics).
Now I wonder, how do you handle (voice) a G6 chord against a major seventh in the melody?
Ralph: The G6 and Gmaj7 are both "G major" chords. Depending on whether & where you're trying to voice the maj7, the G6 4-2-5-X voicing (or any other G6) serves as a great back up chord for a vocalist singing or soloist playing a maj7 tonality. No conflict at all.
