    Default Moon Over Miami - Joe Burke-Edgar Leslie

    "Moon Over Miami" was written in 1935 by Joe Burke and Edgar Leslie. It is an attractive and dreamy ballad. It has a standard AABA structure with a bridge in iii minor. There are many performances of this song on Youtube.

    I will present two different chord charts for this tune. The first uses the standard chord changes found in most arrangements. The second is from the Ray Charles performance which uses an alternate and interesting set of chords. Either sounds nice and does well with the Ballad Swing style at 85 bpm.
