    This is a tough one to find a source for.

    It's in Mayfair Music's Nancy Wilson volume of sheet music for $27.

    But you can get it for a $5 donation directly from the Billy Barnes Foundation:
    https://www.thebillybarnesfoundation.org/sheet-music

    Doug Mackenzie will sell you a transcription of the accompaniment for $1.20 if you buy at least three different transcriptions from him. Or you can copy the chords from his YouTube video with scrolling accompaniment:

    I used to listen to June Christy sing this when I was kid. Glad to see this one ...

    It's easy to input a new song

    You can use pause/play, pause/play step through it slowly.

    If you have problems, post your work in progress here and describe the issue.

    Thank you for sharing the resource.

    Members are welcome and encouraged to share their interpretations of the chord changes they hear for any song.
    We request that they always correctly identify the title and credit the composer(s) of the original work.
    If their chord chart is based on a specific recording, including the YouTube link is very helpful.

    Default June Christy version

    Something Cool (June Christy) - Billy Barnes


    The tricky thing about this song is that the C section is rubato, and June Christy sings the last ~6 bars in a way that's a little hard to notate. Hope you all find some value in this chart!
