Us On A Bus

Here's my transcription of another fun little song made into gold by Fats called, Us On A Bus from 1936. I'm assuming the melody is mimicking the sound of an old American bus bell.

A lot of lovely left-hand inner-voice movement is happening here, helped by the subtle use of the pedal, giving the sound a beautifully rich texture. For simplicity's sake, I've not included pedalling so please listen to the recording to understand Fats' subtle use here.
