Biografía:
Jacob Gershovitz (Brooklyn, Nueva York, 26 de septiembre de 1898 - Beverly Hills, California, 11 de julio de 1937), George Gershwin, compositor estadounidense de música clásica y popular.
En un país que, hasta el final de la Primera Guerra Mundial, había dependido en el ámbito musical casi exclusivamente de modas, compositores e intérpretes llegados de Europa, George Gershwin fue el primero en hacer oír una voz inequívocamente autóctona, aunque capaz, al mismo tiempo, de conquistar el éxito fuera de las fronteras de su patria.

Alright, so most of the versions for this song were fairly accurate with the
general chord progression of this song, however, i believe that there were some
major changes that could be made to improve the overall quality of the song.
Major change- The Em in most of the versions was simply not doing the song
justice, by making it an Edim7 in most places it adds greatly to the jazzy tune of the song.
Here is how i play the chords...
Bm Edim7 F#7 Em D G7
e|--7---|----X-----|----9----|----7----|---5---|---10------------------------
B|--7---|----8-----|----11---|----8----|---7---|---12------------------------
G|--7---|----9-----|----9----|----9----|---7---|---10------------------------
D|--9---|----8-----|----11---|----9----|---7---|---12------------------------
A|--9---|----X-----|----9----|----7----|---5---|---10------------------------
E|--7---|----9-----|---------|---------|-------|-----------------------------
- Keeping the chords relatively close to each other makes it easier to switch
between them and makes the song sound smoother and sexier.
* The G7 is in the original song, however it sounds totally fine without it and
may simplify playing it.
Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm
Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Em F#7 G7* F#7
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm
Your daddy's rich, and your momma's good lookin'
D F#7 Bm Edim7 Bm
So hush little baby, don't you cry
Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm
One of these mornings, you're gonna rise up singing
Em F#7 G7* F#7
Then you'll spread your wings, and you'll take to the sky
Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm Edim7 Bm
But till that morning, there's a nothin' can harm you
D F#7 Bm Edim7 Bm
With daddy and mammy, standing by
Hope you enjoy!
