Pam Munter asked:

["I've been asked to audition for a big band and they want me to sing "You Belong To Me" (as in, "See the pyramids," etc. - Jo Stafford, as I recall).   
I have lyrics, but no chords.  My fake book's chords are pathetic and lack sufficient harmonic changes.  Does anyone have the chords for this chestnut?"]

I guess they could be enhanced to make them more harmonically complex, but these ones work:

||C / / / |Em / / / |F / / / |C Gm A7 / |Dm / Fm / |C / Am / |D7 / / / |G7 / / / ||

Repeat 6 Bars then |D7 / G7 / |C / / /||

|C7 / / / |Gm7 / C7 / |Gm / F / | F / / / |D7 / / / |Am / D7 / |G7 / / / |G7 / / / ||

Repeat First 6 Bars then turnaround |D7 / G7 / |C6 / G7 / || or similar

Best,

Grah
