  • Bad!! Just like I was

....but I need some help getting them right. Im trying to teach it to the choir this weekend. I probably wont include all the different runs and fills they do with the bass or horns but you can get that from listening to the song.

 Now, I aint no professional so this is the simple version and feel free to change it up for me:


Key Ab

LH/RH

Words then the chord for those words BELOW the words.


Intro:


  Eb, Db,Eb,Gb,Eb,B,Db

  Db,Eb,C

  Eb, Db,Eb,Gb,Eb,B,Db

  Eb,F

  C/Eb-Gb-B

  Db/Db-F-B

  Eb/Eb-Gb-B

after this chord, go straight into the next part....



Below is what I do for the "let everything that hath breath praise the lord" part and the "oh lift him up because he's worthy to be praised" part. Just repeat it...


Ab/C-Eb-Ab


Gb/Bb-Db-F-Ab (x2)


Then for the next part...

Ab/C-Eb-Ab (X5)


For the lord is Goooood...

Db/Db-Gb-Bb

Bb/Db-F-Ab
         
and his merrrrrrcy.....


Eb/Db-F-Ab

F/C-F-A

eduuuuurath

Gb/Db-Gb-Bb

F/Db-F-Ab


foreveeeeeer

Eb/Eb-Gb-B (X2)



Eb,D,Db (single notes)

Bless his hooooly

C/Eb-Gb-B

Db/Db-F-B

Eb/Eb-Gb-B



when they say name, I immediately go back to the "let everything that hath breath" part.

after the second time around, when they get to the for the lord is goood and his merrrrcy edurreth foreveeeer, the run is:

Eb,F,Gb,G,Bb,C,

Bb,Bb,B,C,Eb,F,

Eb,F,Gb,G,Bb,C,Eb


For I will Bless the lord

C/Eb-Ab-C

Db/F-Ab-Db


At all times
D/F-Bb-D

D/F-Bb-D

Eb/G-Bb-Eb


then back to the "for the lord is gooood and his meeercy part. the song pretty much repeats the "for I will bleeess the lord" part with a few runs that they add in. listen to the song for those.

then its,

Praiiise him, praiiiise him, praiiise him,    MAN! I lost track of time! I gotta get ready for church. I promise Ill finish later!!

I kinda worked on this song as well.  Not for a choir or anything, but just because.  Here are some chords I use on the "For the Loooord is gooood..." part:

for the Lord is
Db / Cb-Eb-F-Bb  goo-
Cb / A-Db-Eb-Ab  ood, and his
Eb / Db-G-C-Eb  mer-
F / Eb-A-D-F  cy en-
Gb /  Fb-Bb-Eb-Gb  du-
F / Ab-Db-F  reth for-
Eb / G-Cb-Db-Gb  e-
Eb / G-Db-Eb-Gb  ver,
Eb, D, Db /
C / Gb-Cb-Eb  bless
Db / F-Bb-Db  His
Eb / G-Cb-Db-Gb  ho-
Ab / Gb-C-F-Ab  ly
name.

And some chords for some of the Vamp:

C / Bb-Eb-Fb-Ab  praise
Db / Cb-Eb-F-Ab  Him,
Both hands:  Eb, F, Ab, F
D / Cb-D-F-Ab  praise
Eb / C-Eb-Ab  Him,
Both hands:  Eb, F, Ab, F
(repeat)

Those are bout the only 2 parts I like from the song.  The other stuff he can have, LOL.
