Louis Armstrong
What A Wonderful World melody
professorduck@mail.ru
I found the chords for this beautiful song on the site but I could not find a
tab for the melody. Once I figured it out I decided it would be selfish of me
not to share. So here it is, the gorgeous melody of Armstrong's breathtaking baritone.
This tab is not 100% accurate, but it has the basic notes of the melody. You can pick
them out as you see fit. I included lyrics of the first verse to help you find the melody.
