Does anyone have the chords for Cliff's song Gee Whiz It's You

What key do you want?

I think it's in A on the record so that would do to start thanks

OK. Here's a single chorus, structured AABA

(Obliques are bar lines, every beat is given a chord):

Intro:

AADD/AAAA/AADD/EEEE

A section (repeat once, noting different chords in last bar second time):

AADD/AADD/AADD/AAEE/ AADD/AAAA/BBBB/EEEE/

AADD/AAAA/AADD/EEEE/ DDDD/AAF#mF#m/AAEE/ 1: AAEE/
2: AAAA/

B Section:

EEEE/EEEE/AADD/AAAA/ EEEE/EEEE/EEEE/EEEE?

A section reprise:

AADD/AADD/AADD/AAEE/ AADD/AAAA/BBBB/EEEE/

AADD/AAAA/AADD/EEEE/ DDDD/AAF#mF#m/AAEE/AAAA/

Yes, it's very Buddy Hollyish.

Hope that helps,

JN

Not sure how it happened, but I was thinking of "Please Don't Tease". My suggested chords (I could make a couple of slight improvements after consideration) are for that song!

I wasn't near a guitar at the time...
