D D6 D D6
I'm wrackin' my brain to think of a name
Dm7+ Dm6 Dm7+ Dm6
To give to this tune so Perry can croon
Em7/9 A7 Em7 A7
And maybe ol' Bing will give it a fling
D Fdim Em7 A7
And that'll start everyone hummin' the thing
D D6 D D6
The melody's dumb repeat and repeat
Dm7+ Dm6 Dm7+ Dm6
But if you can swing, it's got a good beat
Em7/9 A7 Em7 A7
And that's the main thing, to make with the feet
D G D
'Cause ev'ryone's swingin' today
Bridge
F Gm
So I call it Opus One
Bb C7 F Dm Bb C7
It's not for Sammy Kaye, hey, hey, hey
G D7 G Gdim
Opus One it's got to swing not sway, maybe
D D6 D D6
If Mister Les Brown could make it renowned
Dm7+ Dm6 Dm7+ Dm6
And Ray Anthony could swing it for me
Em7/9 A7 Em7 A7
There's never a doubt you'll knock yourself out
Em7 A7 D6
Whenever you can hear Opus One
