several hits in the 1940s. His song "I wonder" reached number one in the
Billboard Harlem Hit Parade and sold impressively nationwide.

I wrote down the chord structure by ear and Cecil sometimes changes bits of
it as I think. But nevertheless I think it is quite correct. It is an
8-Bar-Blues-Sequence which is repeated all the way through:
| EbMaj7 | Eb7 | Ab | Abm |
| EbMaj7 | Fm7 Bb6 | Eb Cm7 | Fm7 Bb6 |
| I | I7 | IV | IVm |
| I | IIm7 V6 | I VIm7 | IIm7 V6 |

I wonder

My heart is aching
Ab Abm
Why for you, can our love be mistaken?
Eb Fm7 Bb
Darling, don't you say that this must mean our ending
Eb Cm7 Fm7 Bb6
I wonder
Eb Eb7
Baby, I've been through, I've been through lovers lane
Ab Abm
I've been making life, just the same
Eb Fm7 Bb6
I've been traveling, for miles around
Eb Cm7
Trying to find the one I love
Fm7 Bb6
Come on

I wonder, well, well, well, little baby
Ab Abm
Will you think of me, every day?
Eb Fm7
Though I may be a million miles away

I wonder
