The Lies of Handsome Men - Francesca Blumenthal

Hello,

Does anyone have a chart for The Lies of Handsome Men? Written by Francesca Blumenthal, it was first recorded by Margaret Whiting in 1990.

Here is a link to my favorite version by Dame Cleo Laine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le716CWE5m4

Thanks !

You could use this as a resource to easily write out an iRp chart

Odd...the YouTube link works from my computer.

Unfortunately my piano technique is minimal, so I cannot write my own charts.

I kept getting “video unavailable”.

Sure you can. Give it a try. NO piano technique or musician knowledge required.

Look at the YouTube, press pause.
The chords are written in plain text. Just copy them one at a time onto a new chart in iReal pro. Easy Peasy.

I am shocked that I was able to do this! I think this captures the chords shown in the reference video you supplied.

It plays well by the player - but I am a bit concerned about the spacing in the coda. I’m not sure musicians will be able to read it.

Congratulations
Great Job!
I fixed the overlapping in the coda.
