SUNNY (Key of C) by Bobby Hebb Playing notes: Chorus is arpeggio ala’ “House of the Rising Sun.” Bridge is descending bass line ala’ “Summertime” and “Michelle.” Since the melody note is E, not F, the Bm7-5 is incorrect, a Bm11 is more appropriate; however, Bm7-5 is OK if melody not played or sung. The Fminor/Major7 chord (FmM7) is a four-note chord (ends on E2). The E7+9 is just one beat, immediately followed by E7. Note: A = 10 th fret, B = 11 th fret, C = 12 th fret, etc. Original chords in Black, jazz chords in RED.
