Product Description

By Mike Strand, ASCAP

Here's a lead sheet with lyrics, chords and guitar fret boards, for a jazz group, small or large, with voice or solo instrument.  It's a good foundation for a variety of arrangements, improvisations and contra facts. 

For a complete swing band arrangement, see They Came Here to Dance (Swing Band Arrangement), also for sale on this site. 

To help you hear more of the many ways this tune can be performed, the audio sample here features a jazz quartet -- alto saxophone, piano, bass and percussion.  It's produced from an iReal swing accompaniment, combined with my tune from Finale PrintMusic.

For a "Fats" Waller - style piano audio sample, see They Came Here to Dance (Lead Sheet in B flat).

This piece recognizes and celebrates swing dancers.
