Got a request for a wedding (they want me to change the lyrics of course).
Need chord changes to Stevie Wonder's 1972 song "I Never Dreamed You'd Leave
in Summer." Anybody have a clue? I can hear the song in my head and can
work out many of the changes but there are some interesting parts that I
can't quite hear. Any help would be appreciated. Key doesn't matter.

Todd

Hi Todd,
here's what I played endlessly 20 years ago when mourning about a lost love...
:(


| C | Fmaj7 | C |Fmaj7 |

| C | Fmaj7 | D | D |

| Dm |Dm/maj7| Dm7 | G7 |

| Bb | A |G#dim7 | G7 |


In bars 7 and 8 I would actually play: |D Dadd9|Dsus4 D|

Hope this is readable and helps.
Greetings, Tommy

Thanks Guys,

Yes, it is a strange choice for a wedding. The bride likes the music but
wants me to change the lyrics to something more appropriate. This is going
to be a wierd one.

The last wedding reception I attended I was sat at the rowdy table. I
was the only guy in a suit at the table - token straight. Of course
everyone is soused, from the bride's mother on, and everyone thinks
it's hilarious to watch the bride and groom kiss. So they start
dinging the wine glasses to force a makeout. After a couple of rounds
of this, the best man stands up and says that henceforth the bride and
groom will only kiss if an entire table stands up and sings a song
with the word 'love' in it. My father's table is up in about 3
nanoseconds, warbling Let Me Call You Sweetheart. A resounding success
followed by a major makeout. [me shouting out, "Kiss her like you mean
it."] Then a hasty confab at our table, and as soon as whatsisface and
whatsername had finished making out we jumped up and sang White
Wedding by Billy Idol. The bride's mother looked a bit sour at this,
but everyone else lapped it up. Oh yes. Young love. They separated 8
months later. Weddings are strange little rites; I've never much
understood them, but the reception always pays well for a band, so I
guess I'm all for them.
