Ain't Misbehavin'
Music by Fats Waller and Harry Brooks
Words by Andy Razaf

Time: 4/4
Key:  Eb

Eb              Cm7             Fm7             Bb9
  No  one  to   talk with,         all  by    myself,
Eb              G7+5(1)         Ab        Abm    Ddim
  No  one  to   walk with, but  I'm happy on the shelf.
Eb              Gb7             Fm7             Bb9
  Ain't    misbehavin',            I'm  savin'  my love for
Eb              Edim            F7(2)           Bb7(3)
you.

Eb              Cm7             Fm7             Bb9
  I know  for   certain,           the  one  I  love
Eb              G7+5            Ab            Abm      Ddim
  I'm through with flirtin' it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Eb              Gb7             Fm7             Bb9
  Ain't    misbehavin,             I'm  saving  my love for
Eb              Ab              Bb7             G7
you.


Cm                              Ab7
  Like   Jack   Horner,            in   the   corner
F7                              C7
  Don't  go  no-where,             what  do   I  care
Bb                              Cm              F7
  Your   kisses                 are    worth    waiting
Bb7             C7              F7              Bb7
for,            be      -       lieve           me


Eb              Cm7             Fm7             Bb9
  I don't stay  out late,         don't care to go
Eb              G7+5(1)         Ab         Abm    Ddim
  I'm   home   about eight, just me and my ra - di-o
Eb              Gb7             Fm7             Bb9
  Ain't    misbehavin',            I'm savin'   my love for
Eb              C7              F7              Bb7    <- 1st time through
you.

Repeat from beginning.

Eb      Bb7                     Eb                     <- 2nd time through
you.


Chords and substitutions:

Eb:    x  6  5  3  4  3
Cm7:   x  3  5  3  4  3  or  x  x  1  3  1  3
Fm7:   1  3  1  1  4  1
Bb9    x  1  0  1  1  1  or  x  3  3  3  3  4
G7+5   x  x  1  0  0  1  (1) G7+5 sounds awkward in a solo. I substitute G7.
                             It's not technically correct. I'm not a purist.
G7     3  5  3  4  3  3
Ab     4  6  6  5  4  4
Abm    4  6  6  4  4  4
Ddim   x  x  3  4  3  4  or  x  x  0  1  0  1
Gb7    2  4  2  3  2  2
Edim   x  x  2  3  2  3
F7     1  3  1  2  1  1  (2) This should be a 9th, but the voice holds the 9th.
                             Play F7 for accompaniment or solo.
Bb7    x  1  3  1  3  1  (3) This is not in the original. But in a solo it
                             resolves better than the F7.
G7     3  5  3  4  3  3
Cm     x  3  5  3  4  3
Ab7    4  6  4  5  4  4
C7     8 10  8  9  8  8  or  x  3  5  3  5  3
