Michael, I think you need to realise that not everyone has your musical ability and maybe need temper your remarks accordingly. If someone goes to the trouble of posting asking for help, then don't you think it is your duty as a competent musican to encourage rather than discourage? Perhaps it should even be your pleasure as well as your duty, if you want to encourage the less gifted to get as mich enjoyment from their level of music as you obviously do from yours.
The pianist (or composer writing for them) had the notes for this setting of the tune and did harmonic analysis. The method by which a composer or arranger writes a harmony to a melody. Considering the notes of every beat and measure and how they work together to imply a harmony. Because in this sequence of arpeggios you are only playing one note at a time, you can change "chord" on any of those notes. The arpeggios all follow the same pattern, for the most part, so figure out the inversion of the first chord (which is the highest and lowest note) and you're on your way.
Any more info for Bygone Days
Any more info for Bygone Days
I found the tune for Bygone Days here and was wondering if anyone knows where I might find the piano sheet music (if it exists).

On review, the YouTube video isn't a full recording, but it's longer than the 29s clip on Amazon.

Re: Any more info for Bygone Days
Oh that's not even a piano, it's a guitar, which explains the chord inversions ( they will be whatever is easiest on a standard tuned guitar)

Re: Any more info for Bygone Days
Thanks guys. You're right Earl, the YouTube doesn't have piano, only the track on the album.
