What are the chords to Boplicity????

[Marc Gavin]

The Real Book chords to Boplicity don't sound right in parts, like the Bb
in bar 5.
Does anybody have chords to this tune from another source??
thanks

You know, the changes to that tune bugged me out of the Real Book, so
about a year ago I charted it off of "Birth of the Cool". I have done
nothing with it since, but here is what my ears picked up(I don't
really remember transcribing this, so I apologize for errors)...

In concert pitch (recorded in F Major):

//: Gm7 Am7 / BbMa7 C7 / FMa7 / Cm7 F7(alt.) /

/ BbMa7 / Gm7 FMa7\A / BbMa7 C7sus / FMa7(+4) ://

// Cm7 F7(alt.) / Cm7 F7(alt. ) / BbMa7 / /

/ Bbm7 Eb7(alt.)/ Bbm7 Eb7(alt.) / AbMa7 Abm7 / Gm7 C7+4 //

// Gm7 Am7 / BbMa7 C7 / FMa7 / Cm7 F7(alt.) /

/ BbMa7 / Gm7 FMa7\A / BbMa7 C7sus / FMa7(+4) //

I hope that helps!!
Good luck to you...

The tune is available in the "50 Essential Bebop Heads for Guitar" published by
Hal Leonard. From that source, the chords are given as:

A Section
|Gm7 F|/ C7|F |Cm7 F7|
|Bb |Gm7 |C7 |F | (Repeat)

B Section
|Cm7 F7|Cm7 B7|Bb |Bb |
|Bbm7 Eb7|Bbm7 A7|Ab Abm7|Gm7 C7|

Repeat A Section

I think this is pretty much the same as the Real Book. The song is also in the
"Ultimate Jazz Fakebook" but I don't have that with me to check.
