Burt Bacharach – I’ll Never Fall in Love Again (Tab)
Burt Bacharach is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. So I had to do a little tribute to him with I’ll Never Fall in Love Again. For this arrangement, I worked from the Elvis Costello version that cropped up in The Spy Who Shagged Me.
Even in an apparently simple pop tune like this, Bacharach snuck in interesting little moves. So in bar 15 there’s a B7 chord with the melody hitting Ab. Which is the minor third of F creating tension in the key is F major. And there’s a bar of 2/4 cutting the melody short in bar 17.
