Dmin (5th posn)

 (1st pos)
You get a shiver in the dark, its raining in the            park the    
meantime

Dmin

Sound of the river you can        hear                             
everything

Fmaj
  (1st pos)                               
Cmaj
  (3p)         
A
 band is blowing dixie - double four time

Bbmaj
  (1p)                                                     Dmin (5p)
You go inside       when you hear the music play


Bbmaj
  Dmin  
Bbmaj-
(slide)-
Cmaj
		(short fill)
                                 

The rest of the song continues with the same chord structure, but between
some verses there is a long-fill/chorus which is:

Bbmaj
 Dmin 
Bbmaj
-slide-
C
	                            We are the sultans
Bbmaj
 Dmim 
Bbmaj
-slide- 
C
	                               Dmin
		             we are the sultans of swing
Dmin 
Cmaj
 
Bbmaj
-slide-
C
      Dmin 
C
  {repeat once}


Note -

The  
Bb
-Dmin-
Bbmaj
-
C
 part in the chorus can be quite tricky if the song is
played at a fast tempo. One trick is just to play strings 2,3,4 (using the
first finger for 
Bb
 and 
C
). Then, the Dmin shape can be fingered on top of
the 
C
 shape using fingers 2,3,4.

Enjoy....
