Can anyone point me to a chord chart for the complete Bistro Fada waltz (from "Midnight in Paris")...or email it to me if you have it? Will need it for an upcoming gig! Any help is appreciated.
Sorry, don't have a chart, but do have a couple of extraordinary vids - one from Adrian Holovaty, and one from Stephane himself, at DFNW (courtesy of Patrus).
-I was able to grab the rhythm pretty easily from Adrian's vid, very clear and helpful, IMO, and the lead lines are just so melodic and clean, love this tune by Stephane. I've never used that Em voicing that Roy Williams uses (I think it's 7756XX), cool (new, for me) voicing.

I know Barry warhaftig of the Hot Club of Philadelphia has one worked up. You can reach him through their webite.
I've never been a guitar player, but I've played one on stage.
is "Bistro Fada" definitely 100% the "indifference" chords?
Yup, 100%. That fakebook can err on the side of basic sometimes but in this case it's spot on.
Will post a possible second guitar part later if anyone's interested - very indebted to Les Doigts de l'Homme but transposed as they play Indifference in A ...

Actually, there is one slight difference: in the 29th measure of the A section (1st measure of the last line), the chord is C7, not F#7, so the last four measures of the A are : C7/B7/Em/Em. other than that, they are the same.

Hey, in case anyone's still looking for the chords and tab, I've transcribed it here: http://www.soundslice.com/yt/5kF9j25NDG8/ -- where you can see the tab and watch the video at the same time.

think I got there from a link on this forum, probably.
