chords for betty grable

Re: chords request

Hello and welcome to the forums. I'm sure someone will help you with your request, a little more info would help - is it a song by betty grable or about her or who wrote it. I remember a popular movie actress by that name.

Live in the "now" - a contentment of the moment - the past is gone - the future doesn't exist - all we ever really have is now and it's always "now".

Re: chords request

Kim Carnes was not the original artist of Bette Davis Eyes, but made the song popular in 1981 - a version is hosted here on chordie

Re: chords request

Thank you for your comment. No its not "Betty Davis Eyes" or Elkie Brookes' "Pearl was a Singer"

Neil Sedaka wrote and recorded the song "Betty Grable" and that's the one I am after.

Historical note Betty Grable was a Hollywood actress in the 40's and 50's. The original pin up girl whose legs were reputed to be insured for a million dollars.
