NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT
By George and Ira Gershwin
From A Damsel In Distress
Key: G

-8    8    8   -8 -7   -8
Hold-ing hands at mid-night
7     -7  -7  7  -6*
'Neath a star-ry sky...
-5    6   -5  6   7  -7  -8
Nice work if you can get it
-5   6   7  -7  -8     7  7   7
And you can get it -- if you try.

-8      8   8   -8  -7  -8
Stroll-ing with the one girl
7    -7   -7  7*  7  -6*  
Sigh-ing sigh af-ter sigh...
-5    6   -5  6   7  -7  -8
Nice work if you can get it
-5   6   7  -7  -8     7  7   7
And you can get it -- if you try

-8    7 -8  7  -7*   7   
Just im-ag-ine some-one
-8   -8  -4 -4   6   7   -6*
Wait-ing at the cot-tage door.
-7    -6    -7   -6  -7  -7
Where two hearts be-come one...
-7   -8   -9  -9  -9 10 -8    -7*  
Who could ask for an-y-thing more?
-8   8   8  -8   -7   -8
Lov-ing one who loves you,
7    -7  -7   7*  7   -6*
And then tak-ing that vow...
-5     6  -5  6   7  -7  -8
Nice work if you can get it,
-5   6  7  -7  -8
And if you get it --

-9    -8   7   6   7
Won't you tell me how?

REPEAT

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
