Ok, i'm in a bit of a pickle here. My wife's birthday is coming up and all she wants for her birthday is for me to learn Autumn Leaves and play for her on her birthday. Great, just great.

I'm not an arranger by any stretch of the imagination. So i need to come up with a solo fingerstyle arrangement. Any help out there? Preferably in the key of G?

One of my favourite songs,
Here are the chords in the key of G or one #

Melody
Am7 D7 Gmag7 Cmaj7 F#mb5 B7 Em

Bridge
F#m7b5 B7b9 Em Am7 D7 Gmaj7
F#m7b5 B7b9 Em7 A7 Dm7 G7 F#m7b5 B7b9 Em

Repeat the melody twice.
Take liberty with the chords. She will be impressed if you can pull it off as written.
