LAST DATE (Floyd Cramer)
I don’t have the details of the song written down, but LAST DATE is
basically just C, F and G. As written by Floyd Cramer, it was just a
piano solo with a bit of percussion, vocal «ooohs», bass and strings,
so it sounds best if you play it on a piano instead of a guitar (IMHO).
If you can figure out the melody line to go over-top the chords, I can
give you the chords… hang on a second while I put the CD on and I’ll
type the chords as I hear them… bars are separated by slashes…
