Billie Marten - Bird

Hello! I've put the exact chords in as accurately as I could, so if you want to change the voicing or improvise or add parts, you've got it exactly. HOWEVER - in practical terms, the vast majority* of the song just has RH playing (top to bottom) Eb, Db and Gb, with the LH just playing the bass notes of the chords. Soif you just want to play it like it sounds on the record and not fiddle around with it at all, that's how to do it... *(The exception being during the middle 8 and the first time round the chorus that immediately follows it, where the chords are simpler: play those in root position except the C/Eb which you should voice with a Cb at the top, falling to a Bb (at the top of the Eb chord) at the start of the new line). The rising Bb bass in brackets is optional - seems to be there in the live version but not the studio recording. But it's quite nice. There's a good live version on youtube here: https://youtu.be/bw9bwitmtG0 which is extremely close to the studio version, and you can see the pianist's fingers quite clearly for much of it. Handy, right?
