Yes, that is THE gazebo from the movie, featuring my lovely wife Lisa in front. My 1st Rogers-Hammerstein cover. Ukulele Rebellion had a Thanksgiving theme going, and this song was close enough. I also used the arrangement from one of their “official” songbooks, the Daily Ukulele. I mentioned I was doing this song during a family Zoom meeting, noting that John Coltrane covered it. Only my saxophonist nephew knew who Coltrane was.

B7 comes up four times in the above arrangement providing the opportunity to use 4 different voicings. 1st: 4320. 2nd: 2322. 3rd: 4656. 4th: 8979.
I took the song on Zoom tour to:
