Ain't Misbehavin'

Fats Waller/Andy Razaf

Eb Dbdim
No one to talk with
Fm7 Gbdim
All by myself
Eb G7+5
No one to walk with
Ab6 Db7
But I'm happy on the shelf
Eb C7
Ain't misbehaving
Fm7 Bb7 G7 C7 F7 Bb7
I'm saving all my love for you

I know for certain

The one I love
I'm through with flirting
It's just you I'm thinking of
Ain't misbehaving
Eb Ab Eb G7+5
I'm saving all my love for you

Cm Ab7
Like Jack Horner in the corner
F7 C7
Don't go nowhere, what do I care
F Cm7 F7 G7 C7 F7 Bb7
Your kisses are worth waiting for, believe me

I don't stay out late

Don't care to go
I'm home about eight
Just me and my radio
Ain't misbehaving
I'm saving all my love for you
Alfie
Bachrach/David

Cmaj9 Dm7/g
What's it all about, Alfie?
Cmaj7 Dm7 Em7 A7
Is it just for the moment we live?
Dm7 Em7 Am7
What's it all about when you sort it out, Alfie?
Dm7 Dm7/g Cdim
Are we meant to take more than we give?
Dm7 Dm7/g F6/9 G7+5
Or are we meant to be kind?
Cmaj9 Am7 Dm7 F/g G/f
And if only fools are kind, Alfie
C9 Fm7 Gm6 A7
Then I guess it is wise to be cruel
Dm7 Dm7b5 Em7 A7+5
And if life belongs only to the strong, Alfie
Dm7 Dm7/g Cdim Cmaj7
What will you lend on an old golden rule?
Bm7 Eb6 Am7 Bm7
As sure as I believe there's a heaven above, Alfie
Am7/d Bm7 Eb6/d Am7/d
I know there's something much more
Dm7/g G9 G13 G7+5
Something even non-believers can believe in
Cmaj9 Am7 Dm7 Dm7b5 Am6
I believe in love, Alfie
F9 Em7 Am7
Without true love we just exist, Alfie
Am6 F13 En7
Until you find the love you've missed
Am7 D7b5
You're nothing, Alfie
Dm7 Dm7/c F#dim B7+5 E9 Eb7
When you walk, let your heart lead the way
Dm7 F6 C7 Dm7b5
And you'll find love any day, Alfie
C7b9 Cmaj9
Alfie
All Of Me
Gerald Marks/Seymour Simons

C6 E7
All of me, why not take all of me?
A7 Dm7
Can't you see I'm no good without you
E7 Am7
Take my lips I want to lose them
D7 Dm7 G7
Take my arms I'll never use them
C E7
Your goodbyes they left me with eyes that cry
A7 Dm7
How can I get on without you?
F6 Fm6 Em7 A7
You took the part that once was my heart
D7 Dm7 G7 C C#dim Dm7 G7
So why not take all of me?
All This And Heaven Too
Eddie DeLange/Jimmy Van Heusen

Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
You give me your lips and your lips are so heavenly
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7
Stars in the sky are all free and they shine for me
Gm7 C7 A7+5 D7
So does the moon in the blue
Gm7 C7 F6 (C7)
All this is mine and heaven too

Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
You give me your arms and your arms are like angel wings,
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7
Sweet to my ears is the song every bluebird sings,
Gm7 C7 A7+5 D7
Each rosebud kissed by the dew,
Gm7 C7 F
All this is mine and heaven too.

Cm6 Adim Gm7b5 F6

I own each summer day, each mountain capped with snow,
A7 Dm7 A7 Dm7
The sentimental breeze, the dreamy streams that flow,
Cm6 Adim Gm6 A7
Every country lane and every street of stone
D7 Ebdim G7 C7
Are highways of adventure made for me alone

Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
You give me your love and your love is a melody,
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7
Deep in my heart I will carry this song with me,
Gm C7 Eb7 D7
You bring a love so divine
Gm7 C7 F
All this is mine and heaven too.
Almost Like Being In Love
Lerner/Loewe

Cmaj7 D7
What a day this has been
Gmaj7 Gdim
What a rare mood I’m in
Am7 D7 G6 G7
Why, it’s almost like being in love

There’s a smile on my face
Gmaj7 Gdim
For the whole human race
Am7 D7 Gmaj7 G6
Why, it’s almost like being in love
F#m7 B7 Emaj7 E6
All the music of life seems to be
Em7 Am6 B7
Like a bell that is ringing for me
G7 Cmaj7 D7
And from the way that I feel
Gmaj7 Gdim
When that bell starts to peal
Am7 Bbdim
I would swear I was falling
Cmaj7 C#dim
I could swear I was falling
A7 Am7 D13 G6
It’s almost like being in love

Am I Blue
Grant Clarke/Harry Akst

Abmaj7 F7
Am I blue?
Bbm7 Eb7
Am I blue?
Cm7b5 F7 Bb7 Eb7 Ab6 Bbm7 Eb7
Ain't these tears in these eyes telling you?
Abmaj7 F7
Am I blue?
Bbm7 Eb7
You'd be too
Cm7b5 F7 Bb7 Eb7 Ab6 G7
If your dreams and your schemes done fell through
Cm Cmmaj7
There was a time
Cm7 Cm6 Dm7b5 G7
When I was the only one
Dm7b5 G7 Cm7 F7 Bbm7 Eb7
But now I'm the sad and lonely one
Abmaj7 F7
Was I gay

Till today?
Cm7b5 F7 Bb7 Eb7
Now she's gone, and we're through
Ab6 Bbm7 Eb7
Am I blue?
Angel Eyes
Matt Dennis

Cm7 Ab7 Cm7 Ab7

Try to think that love's not around
Cm7 Ab7 Dm7b5 G7
Still it's uncomfortably near
Cm7 Ab7 Cm7 Ab7
My old heart ain't gaining any ground
Cm7 Ab7 G7 Cm7
Because my angel eyes ain't here

Angel eyes, that old Devil sent

They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love's misspent
Misspent with angel eyes tonight

Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 Adim

So drink up all you people
Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 Dbmaj7
Order anything you see
Am7 D7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Have fun all you happy people
C#m7 F#7 Dm7 G7+
The drink and the laughs are on me

Pardon me but I got to run

The fact's uncommonly clear
I got to find who's now the number one
And why my angel eyes ain't here

Ab7 G7+ Cm6

Excuse me while I disappear
As Time Goes By
Herman Hupfeld

Fm7 Bb7
You must remember this
Bbm6 Bb7 Eb6 Fm7 F#dim Gm7
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
F7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6 Fm7 F#dim Gm7
The fundamental things apply as time goes by
Fm7 Bb7
And when two lovers woo
Bbm6 Bb7 Eb6 Fm7 F#dim Gm7
They still say, "I love you." on that you can rely
F7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6 Bbm7 Eb7
No matter what the future brings as time goes by
Abmaj7 C7
Moonlight and love songs never out of date
Fm7 Adim
Hearts full of passion, jealousy and hate.
Cm7 Ab7 F7 Bb7
Woman needs man and man must have his mate
Bdim Bb7
That no one can deny
Fm7 Bb7
It's still the same old story
Bbm6 Bb7 Eb6 Fm7 F#dim Gm7
A fight for love and glory, a case of do or die
F7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
The world will always welcome lovers as time goes by
At Last
Harry Warren/Mack Gordon

C6 Am7 Dm7 G7 C6 Am7

At last my love has come along
Dm7 G7 Em7 A7 Dm7 G7 C6 Am7 Ab7 G7
My lonely days are over and life is like a song
C6 Am7 Dm7 G7 C6 Am7
At last the skies above are blue
Dm7 G7 Em7 A7 Dm7 G7 C6 Fm6 C6 A7
My heart was wrapped up clover the night I looked at you
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
I found a dream that I could speak to
E7 Gbm7b5 B7 Em7
A dream that I can call my own
Am7b5 D7 Gmaj7 E7
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
Am7 D7 Dm7 G7
A thrill I've never known
C6 Am7 Dm7 G7 C6 Am7
You smiled, and then the spell was cast
Dm7 G7 Em7 A7
And here we are in Heaven
Dm7 G7 C6
For you are mine at last
Autumn Leaves
Prevert/Mercer

Em7 Am7 D7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7

The autumn leaves drift by my window
Am6 B7 Em7
The autumn leaves of red and gold
Am7 D7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I see your lips, the summer kisses
Am6 B7 Em7
The sunburned hands I used to hold
Am6 B7 Em7
Since you went away the days grow long
Am7 D7 Gmaj7
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
Am6 B7 Em7 C13
But I’ll miss you most of all, my darling
Am6 B7 Em7
When autumn leaves start to fall
Azalea
Ellington

F6 F#6
It was such a fine spring day down Louisiana way
G7 C9
With fragrance divine
F6 Dm7 Gm7
In such magnificent regalia
C9 F6
Oh, so fine, Azalea
F6 F#6
Oh, what a lovely sight in red and pink and white
G7 C9
Can’t help but believe
F6 Dm7 Gm7
That nothing evil could assail ya
C9 F6
So nice, Azalea
Gm7 Gm7
You’re at ease on the knees of the moss-covered trees
F6 F6
Whose tops met to make a high ceiling
G7 G7
In the church-like pomp of the cypress swamp
Dm7 Gm7 C9
I’ve yet to get that same strange feeling
F F#
I’ve got to go back there and find that blossom fair
G7 C9
I’ll always dream of
F6 Dm7 Gm7
‘Cause with you, who could be a failure?
C9 F
My first love, Azalea
Beautiful Moons Ago
Nat Cole/Oscar Moore

E9 Em7 A7
Here we are together again
Dmaj7 Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
But somehow it's not the same
Em7 A7 Dmaj7
Where is our burning flame
B7 E9 Em7 B7
That we knew beautiful moons ago
E9 Em7 A7
Time was when I held you so close
Dmaj7 Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
And whispered my darling you
Ema7 A7 Dmaj7
You said the same thing too
B7 E9 A7 Dmaj7 C#7
On those beautiful moons ago
F#maj7 Em7
There's thunder in the skies
F#maj7 Em7
Teardrops are in my eyes
F#maj7 Em7
Because the dreams we shared
Bb7 G6
Were all just pretty lies
B Bb7 B7 E9
I know that faiths unkind
Em7 A7
But never mind
Dmaj7 Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
To you I will always cling
Em7 A7 Dmaj7 B7
And memories will bring
E9 A7 Dmaj7 B7
Bring back those beautiful moons ago
Begin The Beguine
Cole Porter

[INTRO] C C6 Cmaj7 C6

C C6 Cmaj7 C6
When they begin the Beguine
C C6 C#dim7 Dm7 G7
It brings back the sound of music so tender
Dm7 Dm7 Dm7 Dm7
It brings back a night of tropical splendor
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 C6 G7
It brings back a memory evergreen
C C6 Cmaj7 C6
I'm with you once more under the stars
C C C#dim7 Dm7 G7
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
Dm7 Dm7 Dm7 Dm7
And even the palms seem to be swaying
Dm7 G7 C6 C6
When they begin the Beguine
Cm7 F7 Bb6 Bb6
To live it again is past all endeavor
Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 A6
Except when that tune clutches my heart
Adim7 Cdim7 G6 Ab6
And there we are swearing to love forever
G6 Fm7 G7sus G7
And promising never, never to part
C C6 Cmaj7 C6
What moments divine, what rapture serene
C C7 Dm7 G7
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted
Dm7b5 [D E F Ab C D E D C Bb Ab ] Dm7b5 Dm7b5 [C Ab] Dm7b5
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 C6
I know but too well what they mean
C C6 Cmaj7 C6
So don't let them begin the Beguine
C C6 G7 G7
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember
Fmaj7 F#m7b5 B7 Em7 A7
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 C6 G7
When they begin the Beguine
C C6 Cmaj7 C6
Oh yes, let them begin the Beguine, make them play
C Dm7 Ebdim7 G7 G7
Till the stars that were there before return above you
Fmaj7 Dm7 Em7 A7
Till you whisper to me once more, "Darling I love you!"
Dm7 Dm7 Dm7b5 Dm7b5
And we suddenly know what heaven we're in
G7 G7 C C6 Cmaj7 C6
When they begin the Beguine

The flowers in spring, the robins that sing

Bewitched
Rogers/Hart

Dm7 G9 Em7 A9
She’s a tramp and don’t I know it
Dm7 G9 Em7 A13
But a tramp can have her charms
Dm7 G9 Em7 Am7
I’m in love, pal, and I know it
Dm7 G9 Cmaj7 C6
Like a babe in arms
Dm7 G9 Em7 A9
Love’s the same old sad sensation
Dm7 G9 Em7 A13
Lately I’ve not slept a wink
Dm7 G9 Em7 Am7
Since this half-pint imitation
Dm7 G13 G7+5
Put me on the blink
C6 Dm7
I’m wild again, beguiled again
C6 C7+5 F6 Bdim
A simpering, whimpering child again
C6 Cdim Dm7 G7 A7 Dm7 G13
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I
C6 Dm7
Couldn’t sleep and wouldn’t sleep
C6 C7+5 F6 Bdim
When love came and told me I shouldn’t sleep
C6 Cdim Dm7 G7 C7b9 F6 A7
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I
Dm7 Dmmaj7 Dm7
Lost my heart, but what of it?
Am7 Ammaj7+ Am7
She is cold, I agree
Dm7 G13 Dm7 G13
She can laugh, and I love it
Em7 Ab7 Dm7 G7b5 G7+5
Although the laugh’s on me
C6 Dm7
I’ll sing to her, each spring to her
C6 C7+5 F6 Bdim
And long for the day when I’ll cling to her
C6 Cdim Dm7 G13 C6
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I

Paul Francis Webster, Sonny Burke

[INTRO] F7 Cm7 [VAMP]

F7 Cm7 F7 Cm7
I'm feeling mighty lonesome, haven't slept a wink
F7 Cm7
I walk the floor and watch the door
F7 Cm7 Bb7
And in between I drink Black Coffee
F7 Cm7 F7 D7
Love's a hand me down broom
Gm7 Gm7/C F7 Cm7 F7 Cm7
I'll never know a Sunday in this weekday room
F7 Cm7 F7 Cm7
I'm talking to the shadows from one o'clock 'till four
F7 Cm7
And Lord, how slow the moments go
F7 Cm7 Bb7
When all I do is pour Black Coffee
Bb7 F7 Cm7 F7 D7
Since the blues caught my eye
Gm7 Gm7/C F7 Cm7 F7 Fm7
I'm hanging out on Monday my Sunday dreams to dry
Bbm7 Eb7 Fm7
Now a man is born to go a loving
Bbm6 C7 Fmaj7
A woman's born to weep and fret
Abm7 Db7 Gbmaj7 Ebm7
To stay at home and tend her oven
Abm7 Db7 Gm7 C7
And drown her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes
F7 Cm7 F7 Cm7
I'm mooning all the morning and mourning all the night
F7 Cm7 F7 Cm7 Bb7
And in between it's nicotine and not much heart to fight Black Coffee
Bb7 F7 Cm7 F7 Gm7
Feeling as low as the ground
Am7 D7 Gm7 Gm7/C F7 Cm7 F7 Cm7
It’s driving me crazy, this waiting for my baby to some day come around
Blackberry Winter
Wilder/McGlohon

Fmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G7 C13

BLACKBERRY WINTER comes without a warning
Fmaj7 Gm7 C7 Am7
Just when you think that spring's around to stay
Bbmaj7 Am7 Dm7
And you wake up on a cold, rainy morning
G7 C9sus F6 Dm7 Gm7 C7
And wonder what on earth became of May
Fmaj7 Am7 Dm7 Gm7 C13
BLACKBERRY WINTER only lasts a few days
Fmaj7 Gm7 C7 Am7
Just long enough to get you feeling sad
Bbmaj7 Am7 Dm7
When you think of all the love that you have wasted
Gm7 C9sus F6 C9sus F6 E13
On someone who you never really had
Ebmaj7 F7 Dm7 Gm7
I'll never get over losing you
Cm7 F7 Bbmaj7
But I had to learn that life goes on
Am6 Ab7+5 Am7 F#m7b5
And the memory grows dim, like a half-forgotten song
Bm7b5 E7 Am7 D7+5 Gm7 C7b9
Til the BLACKBERRY WINTER reminds me that you're gone
Fmaj7 Am7 Dm7 Gm7 C13
I get so lonely, most of all in springtime
Fmaj7 Gm7 C7 Am7
I wish I could enjoy the first of May

Nicest bridge that I've ever seen

Her paint's a little tattered where age has left it's touch
Am6 F#dim7 G6 Gdim7 Am7 D7
Still I guess I'll always love her very much
G6 Em7 Am7 D7 G6 A7+5 D7
Like the folks you meet on, like to plant my feet on the Brooklyn Bridge

What a lovely view from, heaven looks at you from the Brooklyn Bridge
C7 C7+5 B7+5 E7
I love to listen to the wind through her strings

Em7 A7 Em7 A7 Em7 A7 D7
I love to look up at the clouds in her hair she's learned to wear like a crown

Buddie, Beware
Cole Porter
C6 C#dim7 G7 Gdim7
Since I know such a lot of men the opinions that I've got of men
Dm7 G7+5 C6
Are respected not only by amateurs but by pros
C6 Cm7 G6 Em7
I should like to write a book on men and explain that certain look on men
Am7 D7 G6 Am7 G6
Which means they're about to propose
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6 Cm7
Of course it helps a maiden's pride to be in the class of “somebody's bride-to-be”
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
But the reason that I've escaped this doubtful bliss
Cm7 D7 G6 Em7
Is because a certain fear in me wakes the honest pioneer in me
Am7 B7 Em7
And instead of answering “Yes” I always say this:
Cdim7 Dm7 C#dim7 Dm7 Cdim7 Dm7 C#dim7 Dm7
Buddie, beware, buddie, better take care,
A7 Dm7 Dm7 Em7 G7 C6 Am7 C
Though at heart I'm a pearl I'm a difficult girl, so, buddie, beware
Cmaj7 Dm7 C#dim7 Dm7 Cdim7 Dm7 C#dim7 Dm7
When I go to a show I prefer the first row
A7 Dm7 Dm7 Em7 G7 C6 Dm7 C6
When invited to dine I can't eat without wine so buddie, beware
Bm7b5 E7 A6 Bm7b5 E7 Am7
During Christmas holidays I develop taking ways
D7 G6 D7 G7
And I'm not at all anti pretty things Santy brings from Cartier's
Cdim7 Dm7 C#dim Dm7 C7 F6
Your devotion I prize but you must realize, my boy,
Dm7b5 Fm6 C6 A7 Dm7 G7 C6
Other girl's luxuries are my necessities, so, buddie, beware

Buddie, beware, buddie, better take care,

Even angels, I'm told, are still harping on gold so, buddie, beware
Somehow I don't feel nice when I wear a dress twice
Since the day I was weaned I'm a caviar fiend so, buddie, beware
Now and then I like to see Willie Stewart and company
“Cause I hear divine voices when their Rolls-Royces come and honk for me
But if still you insist and we riddle love's mysteries
I should hate leaving you for Willie Donahue so, buddie, beware

Buddie, beware, buddie, better take care,

I must warn you that I'm simply never on time so, buddie, beware
When you order a steak and no supper I'll take
If you tell me I'm rude when I play with your food then buddie, beware
I feel I should put you right as I lie in bed at night
While the twinkling stars gleam on, with my cold cream on I'm a lovely sight
And another thing too, when I'm married to you, my sweet
If to come home you fail, I'll open all your mail
So, buddie, beware, buddie, beware

If you'll give in and be gay with me
Stay with me, play with me, any suggestion's okay with me
Over the garden wall

Chase me Charlie, Chase me Charlie, over the garden wall

Why not give in to the joys of spring?
Have a fling, why are you lingering?

Chase me Charlie, Chase me Charlie, this is my final call

Pussycat, pussycat, don't be coy
Jump for joy, Oy, oy, oy
Straighten your whiskers and atta boy
Over the garden wall
Cheek To Cheek
Irving Berlin

C6 C6 Cmaj7 Dm7 Ebdim7 Em7 Bb7 A7 D7

Heaven, I'm in heaven, and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
G7 Dm7 G7 Dm7 E7 A7
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Dm7 G7 C6 Dm7 G7
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
C6 C6 Cmaj7 Dm7 Ebdim7 Em7 Bb7 A7 D7
Heaven, I'm in heaven, and the cares that hung around me through the week
G7 Dm7 G7 Dm7 E7 A7
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
Dm7 G7 C6 C6
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
G7 C6 G7 C6
Oh I love to climb a mountain, and to reach the highest peak
G7 C6 A7 Dm7 G7 C6
But it doesn’t thrill me half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
G7 C6 G7 C6
Oh I love to go out fishing in a river or a creek
G7 C6 A7 Dm7 G7 C6
But I don't enjoy it half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
Cm7 Cm7 Ab7 Ab7
Dance with me, I want my arms about you
Dm7 Bm7b5 E7 Am7 D7 Dm7 G7
The charm about you will carry me through to
C6 C6 Cmaj7 Dm7 Ebdim7 Em7 Bb7 A7 D7
Heaven, I'm in heaven, and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
G7 Dm7 G7 Dm7 E7 A7
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Dm7 G7 C6 Dm7 G7
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

What lovely things I'll be sayin'
Cm6 F7 Bb6 Cm6 D7
For what is dancing but making love set to music, playin'

When the band begins to leave the stand and folks start to roam

Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day

Just say those words and we'll beat those birds

A Day In The Life Of A Fool
Carl Sigman/Luis Bonfa

Am7 Dm6 E7 Am7 Dm6 E7

A day in the life of a fool
Am7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 C#dim
A sad and a long lonely day
A7 Dm7 G7
I walk the avenue
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
And hope I'll run into
Dm6 E7
The welcome sight of you
Am7 Dm6 E7
Walking my way
Am7 Dm6 E7 Am7
I stop just across from your door
Gm6 A7 Dm7 Dm7
But you're never home any more
Dm/c Dm6 E7
So back to my room

And there in the gloom
Dm6 E7 Am7 Dm7 Am7

The days of wine and roses

Laugh and run away
Eb7
Like a child at play
Am7 Dm7 Gm7
Through a meadow land toward a closing door
Gm6 A7
A door marked "nevermore"
Dm7 G7 Gm7/c C7b9
That wasn't there before
Fmaj7 Eb7 Am7 D7
The lonely night discloses
Gm7
Just a passing breeze
Eb7
Filled with memories
Am7 Dm7 Dm/c Dm6 E7
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
Am7 Dm7 Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
The days of wine and roses and you
Desafinado
A.C. Jobim

F6 G7b5
Love is like a never ending melody
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7
Poets have compared it to a symphony
Gm7 A7b9 D7 D7b9
A symphony conducted by the lighting of the moon
G7b9 Gbmaj7
But our song of love is slightly out of tune
F6 G7b5
Once your kisses raised me to a fever pitch
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7b9
Now the orchestration doesn't seem so rich
Gm7 Bbm7 Eb7 Fmaj7 Dm6 E7
Seems to me you've changed the tune we used to sing
Amaj7 Bbdim Bm7 E7
Like the bossa nova love should swing
A6 Bbdim Bm7 E7
We used to harmonize two souls in perfect time
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm7 E7
Now the song is different and the words don't even rhyme
Cmaj7 C#dim7 Dm7 G7
‘Cause you forgot the melody our hearts would always croon
Gm7 F#dim7 G7 C7 C7b5
What good's a heart that's slightly out of tune?
F6 G7b5
Tune your heart with mine the way it used to be
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7b9
Join with me in harmony and sing a song of loving
Gm7 Bbm7 Eb7 Fmaj7 Dm7
We're bound to get in tune again before too long
G7
There'll be no Desafinado
Bbm7 Eb9
When your heart is mine completely
G7 Gm7
Then you won't be slightly out of tune
C7 F6
You'll sing along with me!
Don't Get Around Much Anymore
Bob Russell/Duke Ellington

C6 C6 Dm7 Cdim7 C6
Missed the Saturday dance
A6 Bm7 Cdim7 A7
Heard they crowded the floor
Dm7
Couldn't bear it without you
G7 C6
Don't get around much anymore
C6 C6 Dm7 Cdim7 C6
Thought I'd visit the club
A6 Bm7 Cdim7 A7
Got as far as the door
Dm7
They'd have asked me about you
G7 C6 Gm7 C7
Don't get around much anymore
F6 Bb7 Cmaj7 C7+5
Darling, I guess my mind's more at ease
D7 Am6 B7 Em7 D7
But nevertheless, why stir up memories?
G7 C6 Dm7 Cdim7 C6
Been invited on dates
A6 Bm7 Cdim7 A7
Might have gone but what for?
Dm7 G7
Awfully different without you
C6
Don't get around much anymore

Em7 Emmaj7 Em7 Em6

Everybody wants to be a cat
Cmaj7 D7 C7 B7
Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at
Em7 Emmaj7 Em7 Em6
Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat
Cmaj7 B7 Em7
'Cause everything else is obsolete
Am7 Ammaj7
Now a square with a horn,
Am7 D7 G6
Makes you wish you weren't born, every time he plays
Am7 B7
With a square in the act,
Am7 B7 Em7 Am7 B7 C7 B7
You can set music back to the caveman days
Em7 Emmaj7 Em7 Em6
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
Cmaj7 D7 C7 B7
But a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing
Em7 Emmaj7 Em7 Em6
When playing jazz who always has a welcome mat?
Cmaj7 B7 Em7
‘Cause everybody wants to be a cat

Georgia, Georgia, a song of you

Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines

Other arms reach out to me, other eyes smile tenderly

Girl From Ipanema
Vincius De Morales/Norman Gimbel/Antonio Carlos Jobim

Fmaj7 Fmaj7 G7 G7
Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes walking
Gm7 Gb7 Fmaj7 Gb9
And when she passes each one she passes goes "aah"
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 G7 G7
When she walks she's like a samba that swings so cool and sways so gently
Gm7 Gb7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7
That when she passes each one she passes goes "aah"
Gbmaj7 Gbmaj7 B9 B9
Oh, but he watches her sadly
Gbm7 Gbm7 D9 D9
How can he tell her he loves her?
Gm7 Gm7 Eb9 Eb9
Yes, he would give his heart gladly
Am7 D7b9
But each day when she walks to the sea
Gm7 C7b9
She looks straight ahead not at he
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 G7 G7
Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes walking
Gm7 Gb7 Fmaj7 Gb7
But when she passes he smiles, but she doesn't see
Girl Talk
Neil Hefti/Bobby Troup

Fmaj7 B9 Bbmaj7 Gm7 C7

They like to chat about the dresses they will wear tonight
Am7 D7 Gm7 Am7 Bb6 C7
They chew the fat about their tresses and the neighbor's fight
Fm7 Bbm7 G7b5 Gm7 C7
Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know
Am7 D7 Am7 Bbm7 Cm6 D7
Become essential things that women find so apropos
Dm7 G7 Gm7 Bbm7
But that's a dame, they're all the same it's just a game
Am7 Dm7 Gm7 C9
They call it girl talk, girl talk
Fmaj7 B9 Bbmaj7 Gm7 C7
They all meow about the ups and downs of all their friends
Am7 D7 Gm7 Am7 Bb6 C7
The who, the how, the why, they dish the dirt, it never ends
Fm7 Bbm7 G7b5 Gm7 C7
The weaker sex, the speaker sex we mortal males behold
Am7 D7 Am7 Bbm7 Cm6 D7
But though we joke, we wouldn't trade you for a ton of gold
Dm7 G9 Gm7 Bbm7
So baby stay and gab away, but hear me say
Am7 D7 Gm7 C7 F6 D7#9 Gm7 C9
That after girl talk, talk to me

Romans, lyrics by Pete Reed

Fm7 Bb7 Gm7

How is the weather in Paris?
Gbm7 Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
I dream of you once again
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7
Montparnasse sleeping in sunshine
Fm7 Bb7
And the Champs d’Elysses in the rain
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7
Will I return to you someday?
Gbm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb7
Where will I find you again?
Ab6 Abm6 Cm7 Gm7
Will it be friendship or will it be love
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
With the blue sky and sunshine above?
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7 Cm7
I took off for Rome and left you alone
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
There was no reason to stay
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7 Cm7
I needed a view, a place that was new
Am7b5 F7 Bb7 Gm7b5 Gdim7
But how could it be without you?
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7
I could come back in the springtime
Gbm7 Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
With all the gardens in bloom
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7
We could go climbing our stairway
Fm7 Bb7
And take in that magnificent view
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7
Will I return to you someday
Gbm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb7
Where will I find you again?
Ab6 Abm6 Cm7 Gm7
Will it be friendship or will it be love
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
With the blue sky and sunshine above?
I Get A Kick Out Of You
Cole Porter

[INTRO] C6 Dm7 G7 [2x]

C6 Dm7 G7 C6 G7
My story is much too sad to be told
C6 G7 C6 Dm7 G7
But practically everything leaves me totally cold
C6 Dm7 G7 E6 B7
The only exception I know is the case
E6 B7 G7
When I’m out on a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui
A7 Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
And I suddenly turn and see your fabulous face.
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
I get no kick from champagne
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
Mere alcohol doesn’t thrill me at all,
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7 Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
So tell me, why should it be true that I get a kick out of you?
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
Some get a kick from cocaine
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
I’m sure that if I took even one whiff
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
That would bore me terrifically too
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
Yet I get a kick out of you
C7 F6 Bb6 Am7 C#dim7 A7
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
Dm7 Gm6 D7 Dm7 G7
I get a kick though it’s clear to me you obviously don’t adore me
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7
I get no kick in a plane
Dm7 G7 C6 Em7 Dm7 G7 A7
Flying to high with some girl in the sky is my idea of nothing to do
Dm7 G7 C6
Yet I get kick out of you.
I Know Why (And So Do You)
Harry Warren/Mack Gordon

Eb6 Cm7 Fm7 Bb7

Why do robins sing in December?
Gm7 Cm7 Ab6 Fdim7
Long before the springtime is due?
Ab6 Gm7 Fm7 Gm7
And even though it's snowing, violets are growing
Fm7 Gm7 Fm7 Bb7
I know why and so do you

Eb6 Cm7 Fm7 Bb7

Why do breezes sigh every evening
Gm7 Cm7 Ab6 Fdim7
Whispering your name as they do?
Ab6 Gm7 Fm7 Gm7
And why have I the feeling stars are on my ceiling?
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
I know why and so do you

Ddim7 Eb6 Cm7 Gm7

When you smile at me
G7 Cm7
I hear gypsy violins
D7 Gm7
When you dance with me
Fm7 Bb7
I'm in heaven when the music begins

Eb Cm7 Fm7 Bb7

I can see the sun when it's raining

Hiding every cloud from my view

And why do I see rainbows when you're in my arms?

Cole Porter

Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7

I've got you under my skin
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
I've got you deep in the heart of me
Fm7 Bb7 Gm7 C7
So deep in my heart, so that you're really a part of me
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
I've got you under my skin
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Bbm6-C7
I tried so not to give in
Abm6 Bb7 D Ebmaj7
I said to myself this affair, it never will go so well
Dm7 G7 B Cmaj7
But to why should I try to resist, when baby I know so well
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Bbm6-C7
That I've got you under my skin
Fm7 Bb7 Bb7/ab
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
Gm7 C7
For the sake of having you near
Fm7 Bb7 Bb7/ab
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
Gm7 Gb7 Fm7 Bb7
And repeats, repeats in my ear
Cm6 Fdim Gm7 C7
Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6 Bbm7-Eb7
Use your mentality, wake up to reality,
Abmaj7 Db7
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Ebmaj7 Bbm7-C7
Makes me stop before I begin
Fm7 Bb7 Eb (Gm7 C7)
Because I've got you under my skin

Invitation
Bronislau Kaper

Cm9
You and your smile hold a strange invitation
F13
Somehow it seems we’ve shared our dreams
Bb13
But where?
Ebm9
Time after time in a room full of strangers

Out of the blue

Ab13 Db13
Suddenly you are there
C#m9 F#7+5 Bm9
Wherever I go you’re the glow of temptation
E7+5 Am9
Glancing my way in the grey of the dawn
D7+5 Gm9
And always your smile holds that strange invitation
B7b5
Then you are gone
D7b9 G7+5
Where oh where have you gone?
Cm9
How long must I live in a world of illusion?
F13 Bb13
Be where you are, so near yet so far apart
Ebm9 B9
Hoping you’ll say with a sweet invitation
F#7#9 Bb7#9
Where have you been, darling come in
Ebmmaj7
Into my heart
It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)
Ellington/Mills

Gm7 Eb7 D7 Gm7 Gm6 Eb7

What good is melody, what good is music
Gm7 Eb7 D7 Gm7
If it ain't possessing something sweet?
Gm7 Eb7 D7 Gm7 Gm6 Eb7
Now it ain't the melody and it ain't the music
Gm7 Eb7 A7 D7 D7+5
There's something else that makes this tune complete
Gm7 Eb7 D7 Gm7
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
C7 F9 Bb6 D7
Doo wah doo wah doo wah doo wah
Gm7 Eb7 D7 Gm7
It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing
C7 F7 Bb6 D7
Doo wah doo wah doo wah doo wah
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
C7 C7+5 F7 G7 D7
Just give that rhythm everything you got

It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing

It Had To Be You
Isham Jones

D7+5 G6 Gmaj7 E7
It had to be you, it had to be you
A7
I wandered around, and finally found
D7
The somebody who could make me be true
Ebdim7 Em7
Could make me be blue
A7 D7 D7+5
And even be glad, just to be sad thinking of you
D7+5 G6 Gmaj7 E7
Some others I've seen, might never be mean
A7
Might never be cross, or try to be boss
D7
But they wouldn't do
Cmaj7 F9
For nobody else, gave me a thrill
D7 G6 B7 Em7
With all your faults, I love you still
D7
It had to be you, wonderful you
G6 [TURNAROUND Am7 D7+5]
It had to be you
It Might As Well Be Spring
Rogers/Hammerstein

G6 C7 Bm7 E9 Am7 D7
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm
G6 Dm7 G7
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string
Cmaj7 F#7 Bm7 E7
I'd say that I had spring fever
Am7 D7 Bm7 E7 Am7 D7
But I know it isn't spring
G6 C7 Bm7 E7 Am7 D7
I'm starry eyed and vaguely discontented
G6 Dm7 G7
Like a nightingale without a song to sing
C6 F#7 Bm7 E7
Why should I have spring fever
Am7 D7 G6 Dm7 G7
When it isn't even spring?
Cmaj7 Dm7
I keep wishing I were somewhere else
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
Walking down a strange new street
Am7 Am7/g F#m7b5 B7
Hearing words I have never never heard
Em7 A7 Am7 D7
From a girl I've yet to meet
G6 C7 Bm7 E9 Am7 D7
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams
G6 Dm7 G7
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
Cmaj7 F#7 Bm7 Em7
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud
Am7 D9 B7 E7
Or a robin on the wing
A7 Cm7 F7
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
Bm7 Em7 A7 F#7
That it might as well be spring
Bm7 Em7 Am7 D7 G6 C7 G6
It might as well be spring

It’s a blue world alone
Bbmaj7 Bbm7 C7 Fmaj7 F7
My days and nights that once were filled with heaven

With you away, how empty they have grown

The sea, the sky, my heart and I

We’re all an indigo hue
G7 Gm9 C7 F6
Without you, it’s a blue, blue world
It's Only A Paper Moon
Arlen/Rose/Harburg

G6 Abm7b5 Am7 D7 Am7 D9 G6

It's only a paper moon sailing over a cardboard sea
G7 C6 A7 D7 G6 Am7 D7
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believed in me
G6 Abdim7 Am7 D7 Am7 D9 G6
It's only a canvas sky hanging over a muslin tree
G7 C6 A7 D7 G6 G7
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believed in me
C6 C#dim7 Gmaj7 Am7 D7 G6 G7
Without your love it's a honky tonk parade
C6 C#dim7 Gmaj7 Bm7 E7 A7 D7+5
Without your kiss it's a melody played in a penny arcade
G6 Abdim7 Am7 D7 Am7 D9 G6
It's a Barnum and Bailey world just as phony as it can be
G7 C6 A7 D7 G6
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believed in me
I’ve Got The World On A String
Arlen/Koehler

F6 D7 Gm7 Bbm7
I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow
F6 Am7 Abm7
Got the string around my finger
Gm7 C7 F6 F#dim7 Gm7 C7
What a world, what a life, I'm in love!
F D7
I've got a song that I sing

I can make the rain go, anytime I move my finger
Gm7 C7 F6 Bb6/9
Lucky me, can't you see, I'm in love
F6 Em7 A7 Am7
Life is a beautiful thing, as long as I hold the string

I'd be a silly so and so, if I should ever let go

I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow

Got the string around my finger

Just One Of Those Things
Cole Porter

F6 Gm7 C7 F6 C7 F6 C7
As Dorothy Parker once said to her boyfriend, "Fare thee well!"
F6 Dm7 Fm7
As Columbus announced when he knew he was bounced
C G7 C6 Dm7
"It was swell, Isabelle, swell!"
Gm7 C7 Fmaj7 Dm7 Em7b5 A7 Dm7
As Abelard said to Elouise, "Don't forget to drop a line to me please."
Bb6 Bdim7 F6 Cm7 Gm7 Gm6 A7
As Juliet cried in her Romeo’s ear, "Romeo, why not face the fact, my dear?"
Dm7 A7
It was just one of those things
F7 Bm7b5 Bbdim7
Just one of those crazy flings
F6 Fm7 Gm7 C7
One of those bells that now and then rings
Dm7 Ebdim7 C7
Just one of those things
A7 Dm7 A7
It was just one of those nights
F7 Bm7 C#dim7
Just one of those fabulous flights
F6 Fm7 Gm7 C7
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Dm7 Ebdim7 Fm7 Bb7
Just one of those things
Eb6 Bb7 Eb6 G7
If we thought a bit of the end of it when we started painting the town
Am7 Adim Fm7 Dm7b5 Em7 Edim7 C6
We'd have been aware that our love affair was to hot not to cool down,
A7 Dm7 A7
So goodbye, dear and amen;
F7 Bb6 Gm7
Here's hoping we meet now and then
Am7 D7 Ebdim Gm7 C7 F6
It was great fun but it was just one of those things

Rogers/Hart

C6 Cm7 Dm7 G7
She gets too hungry for dinner at eight
C6 Cm7 Dm7 G7
She loves the theater but always comes late
C6 C7 F6 Fm6
She never bothers with people she hates
C6 F6 G7 C6 G7
That’s why the LADY IS A TRAMP
C6 Cm7 Dm7 G7
She won’t play crap games with barons and earls
C6 Cm7 Dm7 G7
Won’t go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
C6 C7 F6 Fm6
Won’t dish the dirt with the rest of the girls

That’s why the LADY IS A TRAMP
Fmaj7 G7 Em7 Am7
She loves the free, fresh wind in her hair

Life without care

Hates California, it’s cold and it’s damp

That’s why the LADY IS A TRAMP

Soon we’ll be without the moonlight
Eb7 Ab6 G7
Humming a different tune and then

It's very clear, our love is here to stay
G7 Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7
Not for a year but ever and a day

The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know

Fm6 G7 C7 Fm7 Dbmaj7 Bbm7 Eb7

Lullaby of Birdland, that's what I always hear when you sigh
Cm7 Fm7 Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 Db7 Bbm6 C7
Never in my worldland could there be ways to reveal in a phrase how I feel

Have you ever seen two turtledoves bill and coo when they love?

Lush Life
Billy Strayhorn

Db6 B9 Dbmaj7
I used to visit all the very gay places
B9 Dbmaj7
Those come what may places
B9 Dbmaj7 Ebm7 Fm7 Gbm7 Abm7 D7
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
Dbmaj7 D7 Dbm6
To get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails
Db6 B9 Dbmaj7
The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
B9 Dbmaj7
With distant gay traces
B9 Dbmaj7 Ebm7 Fm7 Gbm7 Abm7 D7
That used to be there you could see where they'd been washed away
Dbmaj7 D7 Dbm6 Gm7b5 C7
By too many through the day twelve o'clock tales
Fm7 Fm6 Fm7 Fm6
Then you came along with your siren song
Fm7
To tempt me to madness
Fm7 Fm6 Fm7 Fm6
I thought for a while that your poignant smile
Dbmaj7 Dbdim7 Ebm7 Ab7
Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me
B7b5 Bb7 Ebm7
Ah yes! I was wrong
A7b5 Ebm7 Ab7
Again, I was wrong
Dbmaj7 D7b5 Dbmaj7
Life is lonely again
D7b5 Db6 Cm7b5 B7 Emaj7 D7b5
And only last year everything seemed so sure
Dbmaj7 D7b5 Dbmaj7
Now life is awful again
D7b5 Db6 Db7 C7 Fmaj7
A trough full of hearts could only be a bore
A7b5 Abmaj7 Eb7#9 Abmaj7 Em7 A7
A week in Paris will ease the bite of it
Dmaj7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 Ab7
All I care is to smile in spite of it
Dbmaj7 D7b5 Dbmaj7
I'll forget you, I will
D7b5 Db6 Cm7b5 B7 Fm7 Bb7
While yet you are still burning inside my brain
Gbm7 B7 A7 Ab7
Romance is mush stifling those who strive
Dbmaj7 Gb7 Fm7 Bb7
I'll live a lush life in some small dive
Gbm7 B7 A7 Ab7
And there I'll be, while I rot
Emaj7 Eb6 Dmaj7 G7 Db6 D7 Db6
With the rest of those whose lives are lonely, too
Mack The Knife
Kurt Weill

C6 Dm7 G7 C
Oh, the shark has pretty teeth and he shows them pearly whites
Am7 Dm7 G7 C
Just a jackknife has MacHeath and it keeps it out of sight

When that shark bites with his teeth scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves though, wears old MacHeath
So there's never a trace of red

On the sidewalk Sunday morning lies a body, just oozing life

Someone's sneaking round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There's a tugboat down by the river

With a cement bag a drooping on down
That cement bag is there for the weight
Five'll get ya ten that Macky's back in town

Hear about Bill Gates?

He disappeared after drawin out all his hard-earned cash
And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor
Could that our boy's done something rash?

Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan

Jennifer Lopez, and old Britney Spears
The line forms on the right face now that Mack is back in town

Oprah Winfrey, Suze Orman

Michelle Obama, let's all go to town
The line forms on the right face now that Mack is back in town
Make Believe
Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein II

C6 Cmaj7 C7 F Fm6
The game of "just supposing" is the sweetest game I know
C6 G7 C6
Our dreams are more romantic than the world we see
C6 Cmaj7 C7 F Fm6
And if the things we dream about don't happen to be so
C6 Dm7 G7 C
That's just an unimportant technicality
C#dim7 G7 F6 Bbm7 G7 C
We could make believe I love you, only make believe that you love me
C#dim7 G7 Dm7 G6 F6 Fmaj7 Bb6 G7
Others find peace of mind in pretending
C6 D7
Couldn't you? Couldn't I?
G7 C#dim G7 F6 Bbm7 G7 C6
Couldn't we make believe our lips are blending in a phantom kiss
D7
Or two or three?
F6 F#dim7 C6
Might as well make believe I love you
C#dim G7 C6
For to tell the truth I do
Manhattan
Richard Rogers/Lorenz Hart

F6 Abdim7 Gm7 C7 Fmaj7

We'll have Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island too
Abdim C7 C7+5 F6 Abdim7 Gm7 C7
It's lovely going to the zoo.
F6 Abdim7 Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
It's very fancy on old Delancey Street, you know
Dm7 G7 Gm7 C7 Cdim7
The subway charms us so where bonny breezes blow to and fro
F6 D7 Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
And tell me, what street compares with Mott Street in July?
Abdim7 C7 C7+5 Cm6 D7
Sweet pushcarts gently, gently gliding by
Gm7 Eb7 F6 Dm7 G7
The great big city's a wondrous toy just made for a girl and boy
F6 Abdim7 Gm7 C7 F6
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy

We'll go to Greenwich, where modern men itch to be free

And Bowling Green you'll see with me
We'll bathe at Brighton, the fish you'll frighten when you're in
Your bathing suit so thin, will make the shellfish grin fin to fin
I'd like to take a sail on Jamaica Bay with you
And fair Canarsie's lakes we'll view
The city's bustle cannot destroy the dreams of a girl and boy,
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy

We'll go to Yonkers where true love conquers in the wilds

And starve together, dear, in Childs
We'll go to Coney and eat baloney on a roll,
In Central Park we'll stroll where our first kiss we stole, soul to soul.
Our future babies we'll take to Abie's Irish Rose;
I hope they'll live to see it close
The city's clamor can never spoil the dreams of a boy and goil,
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy

We'll have Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island too

We'll try to cross Fifth Avenue
As black as onyx, we'll find the Bronix Park Express
Our flatbush flat, I guess will be a great success, more or less
A short vacation on Inspiration Point we'll spend
And in the station house we're bound to end
But civic virtue cannot destroy the dreams of a girl and boy,
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy

And a thousand violins begin to play
Gm7 C7
Or it might be the sound of your hello
Dmaj7 Bm7
That music I hear

I get misty, the moment you're near

Can't you see that you're leading me on?

Lives a girl whose beauty shames the rose

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
Fm7 Bb
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Fm Bb7
Is it only 'cause you're lonely, they have blamed you
Eb
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?

Ab
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Abm Eb
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
Bb7 Eb Eb7
They just lie there and they die there
Ab Eb
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Bb7 Eb
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art?

Cmaj7 Dm7 Em7 F#dim7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 E7

My romance doesn't have to have a moon in the sky

Nature Boy
Eden Ahbez

Em7
There was a boy
Am6 Em7
A very strange, enchanted boy
Am6 Em Emmaj7 Em7
They say he wandered very far
Am6 Em7 Am6
Very far, over land and sea
Am6 Em7
A little shy and sad of eye
F#7 B7
But very wise was he
Em7
And then one day,
Am6 Em7
One magic day he passed my way
Am6 Em7
And as we spoke of many things
Am6 Em7
Fools and Kings
Am6 Em7 Am6
This he said to me
Em
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
F#7 B7 Em7 F#m7b5 B7
Is just to love and be loved in return".
The Nearness Of You
Ned Jones/Hoagy Carmichael

Fmaj7 Cm7
It's not the pale moon that excites me
Bbmaj7 Gdim7 Bbm7 Am7
That thrills and delights me, oh no
Gm7 C7 Am7 Gm7 C7+5
It's just the nearness of you
Fmaj7 Cm7
It isn't your sweet conversation
Bbmaj7 Gdim7 Bbm7 Am7
That brings this sensation, oh no
Gm7 C7 F6
It's just the nearness of you
Bbm6 C7 Fmaj7 F7
When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
Bbmaj7 Cm6 D7 Gm7 C7
All my wildest dreams come true
Fmaj7 Cm7
I need no soft lights to enchant me
Bbmaj7 Gdim7 Bbm7 Am7
If you'll only grant me the right
Gm7 C7 Cm6 D7
To hold you ever so tight
Gm7 C7 F6 Dm7 Gm7 C7
And to feel in the night the nearness of you

Holding hands at midnight ‘neath a starry sky
G6 Am7
Nice work if you can get it
Am7 D7 G6
And you can get it if you try
B7 E7 A7+5 D7 G7 C7 A7 Bbdim7
Strolling with the one girl, sighing sigh after sigh
G6 Am7
Nice work if you can get it
Am7 D7 G6
And you can get it if you try
Em7 C7 Em7 A7
Just imagine someone waiting at the cottage door
Dm7 Em7 A7
Where two hearts become one
D6 D9 C7b5
Who could ask for anything more?
B7 E7 A7+5 D7 G7 C7 A7 Bbdim7
Loving one who loves you, and then taking that vow

And if you get it, won’t you tell me how
A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square
Sherwin/Maschwitz

Ebmaj7 Cm7 Gm7 Eb7

That certain night, the night we met
Ab6 G7 Cm7 Abm6
There was magic abroad in the air
Ebmaj7 Bb7 Eb7 Abm7 Db7
There were angels dining at the Ritz
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Gm7 Eb7
I may be right, I may be wrong
Ab6 G7 Cm7 Abm6
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
Ebmaj7 Bb7 Eb7 Abm7 Db7
That when you turned and smiled at me
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
G6 Em7 Am7 D7
The moon that lingered over London town
Bm7 Bbm7b5 Am7 D7
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
G6 Em7 Am7 D7
How could he know we two were so in love?
Bm7 Bbm7b5 Fm7 Bb7
The whole darn world seemed upside down
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Gm7 Eb7
The streets of town were paved with stars
Ab6 G7 Cm7 Abm6
It was such a romantic affair
Ebmaj7 Bb7 Eb7 Abm7 Db7
And as we kissed and said good night
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square

[ALTERNATE BRIDGE]
G6 Em7 Am7 D7 Bm7
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue
Bbm7b5 Am7 D7
To interrupt our rendezvous
G6 Em7 Am7 D7
I still remember how you smiled and said
Bm7 Bbm7b5 Fm7 Bb7
"Was that a dream or was it true?"
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Gm7 Eb7
Our homeward step was just as light
Ab6 G7 Cm7 Abm6
As the tap-dancing feet of Astaire
Ebmaj7 Bb7 Eb7 Abm7 Db7
And like an echo far away
Ebmaj7 Cm7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
The Odd Couple
Cahn/Hefti

Dm7 G7
No matter where they go
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
They are known as the couple
Gm7 C7
They're never seen alone
Gm7 C7 Gm7 C7 Gm7 C7
So they're known as the couple
F7 B7b5 Bbmaj7 Bb6
As I've indicated
Em7 A7 Dm7 G7
They are never quite separated
Bbmaj7 A7 Dm7
They are peas in a pod
F7 Gm6 A7
Don't you think that it's odd
Dm7 G7
Their habits, I confess
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
None can guess with the couple
Gm7 C7
If one says no it's yes
Gm7 C7 Gm7 C7 Gm7 C7
More or less, with the couple
F7 B7b5 Bbmaj7 Bb6
But they're laugh provoking
Bmaj7 A7 Dm7 F7
Yet they really don't know they're joking
Bb6
Don't you find
Gm7 C9sus
When love is blind
F6 Bb9 A7
It's kind of odd
Old Man River
Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein

Eb6 Cm7
Old Man River

That Old Man River
Eb6 Ab6 Eb6 Cm7
He must know something but don't say nothing
Fm7 Bb7
He just keeps rolling
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6 Ab6 Eb6 Bb7
He keeps on rolling along
Eb6 Cm7
He don't plant taters
Eb6 Ab6
He don't plant cotton
Eb6 Ab6 Eb6 Cm7
And them that plants 'em is soon forgotten
Fm7 Bb7
But Old Man River
Fm7 Bb7 Eb Cm6 D7
He just keeps rolling along
Gm7 D7 Gm7 D7
You and me, we sweat and strain
Gm7 D7 Gm7 D7
Bodies all aching and racked with pain,
Gm7 Cm6 Gm7 D7
Tote that barge, lift that bale,
Gm7 D7 Gm7 F7 Bb7
Get a little drunk and you land in jail
Eb6 Cm Eb6 Ab6
I get weary and sick of trying
Eb6 Ab6 Cm7 F7
I'm tired of living but I'm scared of dying,
Fm7 Bb7
That Old Man River
Fm7 Bb7 Eb6 Bb7
He just keeps rolling along

Washington/Kaper

Ebmaj7 Ebm9
Lover, one lovely day
Fmaj7 Emaj7 Ebmaj7 C7
Love came, planning to stay
Fm7 Bb9sus Bb7+5 Ebmaj7
Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting
Abm7 Db9sus Db7+5 Gbmaj7 Fm7 Bb7
The setting for nights beyond forgetting
Ebmaj7 Ebm9
And through these moments apart
Fmaj7 Emaj7 Ebmaj7 C7
Memories live in my heart
Fm7 Eb Dbm7b5 G7 Cm6
When I recall the love I found on
F7 F#dim7 G7+5 C7 F7+5 Bb13 G7+5 C7 F7+5 Bb13 Ab6
I could kiss the ground on Green Dolphin Street
On The Street Where You Live
Alan Jay Lerner/Frederick Loewe

Cm7 F7 Bb6 F7 Bbmaj7 Bb6

I have often walked down this street before
Bbmaj7 Bbdim7 F7
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before
Cm7 F7 Cm7 Ebm7 Dm7
All at once am I several stories high
Bb6 C7 F9 F7+5 Bb6
Knowing I’m on the street where you live
Cm7 F7 Bb6 F7 Bbmaj7
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Bb6 Bbmaj7 Bbdim7 F7
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Cm7 F7 Cm7 Ebm7 Dm7
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
Bb6 C7 F9 Eb6 Bb6
No, it’s just on the street where you live.
D7 Am7 Cdim7 Eb6
And oh, the towering feeling
Ebm6 Bbdim7 Bb6 Bbmaj7 Bb7 Bb6
Just to know somehow you are near
Bbdim7 Bb6 Gm6 Em7 A7
The overpowering feeling
D6 A6 Am7 Bb6 Cm6
That any second you may suddenly appear!
F9 Cm7 F7 Bb6 F7 Bbmaj7
People stop and stare, they don’t bother me
Bb6 Bbmaj7 Bbdim7 F7
For there’s nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
Bm7 Dm6 C#+5 C#m7
Let the time go by, I don’t care if I
Bb6 C9 F9 F7 Bb6 Cm7 Bbmaj7
Can be here on the street where you live!
On The Sunny Side Of The Street
Fields/McHugh

Bb6 D7
Grab your coat and your hat
Eb6 Cm6 D7
Leave your worries on the doorstep
Gm7 C7 Cm7 F7 Bb6 F7
Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street
Bb6 D7
Can’t you hear that pitter-pat
Eb6 Cm6 D7
And that happy tune is your step
Gm7 C7 Cm7 F7 Bb6
Life can be so sweet on the sunny side of the street
Bb7 Eb6
We used to walk in the shade with our blues on parade
C7
But I’m not afraid
F7
This rover has crossed over
Bb6 D7 Eb6 Cm6 D7
If I never had one cent I’d be as rich as Rockefeller
Gm7 C7 Cm7 F7 Bb6
Gold dust at my feet on the sunny side of the street

It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place except you and me
C6 Bb7 C6 Bb7 C6 Gm7 C7
So set 'em' up Joe, I got a little story I think you should know
F6 C6 F6 C6
We're drinking my friend to the end of a brief episode

I know the routine, so drop another quarter in the machine
E6 D7 E6 D7 E6 Bm7 E7
I feel kind of bad, can't you make the music easy and sad?
A6 E6 A6 E6
I could tell you a lot, but it's not in a gentleman's code
G#m7 C#m7 F#m7 G#m7 Amaj7 B7 E6
Make it one for my baby and one more for the road
Em A7 Em A7
You'd never know it, but buddy I'm a kind of poet
G#7 C#7 F#7 B7 E6
And I've got a lot of things to say
Em7 A7 Em7 A7
And if I'm gloomy, please listen to me
C7 B7
Until it's talked away
E6 D7 E6 D7 E6 D7 D6 C7 B7 E6
Well that's how it goes, and Joe I know your getting anxious to close
E6 D7 E6 D7 E6 Bm7 E7
Anyway, thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear
A6 E6 A6 E6
But this torch that I found, has gotta be drowned or it's gonna explode
G#7 C#m7 F#m7 G#m7 Amaj7 G#7
Make it one for my baby and one more for the road
C#m7 F#m7 G#m7 Amaj7 B7 E6
That damn long … it’s so long …
Over The Rainbow
Harold Arlen/Y.P. Harburg

D6 G6
When all the world is a hopeless jumble
Dmaj7 Em7 A7
And the raindrops tumble all around
D6 Cdim7 Em7 A7 D6 A7
Heaven opens a magic lane
D6 G6
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
Dmaj7 C#m7 F#7
There's a rainbow highway to be found
Bm G7 Em7 A7
Leading from your window pane
D6 Em7
To a place behind the sun
D6 Em7 A7
Just a step beyond the rain
D6 Bm6 F#m7 D7
Somewhere over the rainbow
G6 Gmaj7 G7 F#m7 Cdim7
Way up high
G6 Gm6 D6 B7 E7 Em7 A7 D6 A7
There's a land I heard of once in a lullaby
D6 Bm7 F#m7 D7
Somewhere over the rainbow
G6 Gmaj7 G7 F#m7 Cdim7
Skies are blue
G6 Gm6 D6 B7 E7 Em7 A7 D6
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
D6 Dmaj7
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Em7 A7 D6 Em7 A7
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
D6 Dmaj7
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Abdim7
Away above the chimney tops
Em7 A7+5
That's where you'll find me
D6 Bm7 F#m7 D7
Somewhere over the rainbow
G6 Gmaj7 G7 F#m7 Cdim7
Bluebirds fly
G6 Gm6 D6 B7
Birds fly over the rainbow
E7 Em7 A7 D6
Why, then, oh why can't I?
D6 Em7
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
A7 D6
Why, oh why can't I?
Pennies From Heaven
Burke/Johnston

C6 Cmaj7 Dm7 G7
Every time it rains it rains PENNIES FROM HEAVEN
C6 Cmaj7 Dm7 G7
Don’t you know each cloud contains PENNIES FROM HEAVEN
C7 F6
You’ll find your fortune falling all over town
D7 G7 Dm7 G7
Be sure that your umbrella is upside down
C6 Cmaj7 Dm7 G7
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
C7 Fmaj7 F6
If you want the things you love you must have showers
F6 Bb7 Cmaj7 A7
So when you hear it thunder, don’t run under a tree
Dm7 Dm7 G7 C6
There’ll be PENNIES FROM HEAVEN for you and me
Polka Dots and Moonbeams
Jimmy Van Heusen/Johnny Burke

F6 Dm7 Gm7 C7
A country dance was being held in a garden
Am7 Dm7 Gm7 Gm6 A7
I felt a bump and heard an “Oh, beg your pardon”
Dm7 Dmmaj7 Dm7 Am7 Abm7
Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams
Gm7 C7 Am7 D7 Gm7 C7
All around a pug-nosed dream
F6 Dm7 Gm7 C7
The music started and was I the perplexed one
Am7 Dm7 Gm7 Gm6 A7
I held my breath and said "May I have the next one?"
Dm7 Dmmaj7 Dm7 Am7 Abm7
In my frightened arms, polka dots and moonbeams
Gm7 C7 F6 Bm7 E7
Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream
A6 Bbdim7 Bm7 E7
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
C#m7 F#m7 Bm7 E7
As we floated over the floor
A6 Bbdim7 Bm7 E7
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
A7 D7 Gm7 C7
And perhaps a few things more
F6 Dm7 Gm7 C7
Now in a cottage built of lilacs and laughter
Am7 Dm7 Gm7 Gm6 A7
I know the meaning of the words "Ever after"
Dm7 Dmmaj7 Dm7 Am7 Abm7
And I'll always see polka dots and moonbeams
Gm7 C7 F6
When I kiss the pug-nosed dream

You’ll look so good that you’ll be glad you decided to smile
Eb6 Gm7 C7 Fm7 Bb7 Fm7 Bb7
Pick out a pleasant outlook, stick out that noble chin
Eb6 Gm7 C7 Fm7 Bb7 Bbm7 Eb7
Wipe off that “full of doubt” look, slap on a happy grin
Abmaj7 Eb6 Fm7 Bb7 G7+5 C7 F7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
Spread sunshine all over the place, just PUT ON A HAPPY FACE

Yes, I'm walking, but I'm walking without feet

With what's too big and what's too small

You made the coat and vest fit the best

You made the lining nice and strong

You made the peak lapel look so swell

Who am I to say that you're wrong?
F7 Ab7 G7 Cm6 Ab6 Cm D7
But Sam, you made the pants too long
G6 Em7 Am7 D7
They got the belt, and they got suspenders
G6 Em7 Am7 D7
So what can they lose?
Bb6 Gm7 Cm7 F7
But what good are belts, what good suspenders
Bb6 G7
When the pants are hanging over the shoes?
Cm7 G7

The belt is where the tie belongs

Clarke/Hanley

F6 Gm7 Dm7 Am7

Father has a business strictly second hand

Everything from toothpicks to a baby-grand
F6 Gm7 Dm7 Am7
Stuff in our apartment came from father's store
G7 C7
Even clothes I'm wearing someone wore before
Gm7 D7 Gm7
It's no wonder that I feel abused

I never get a thing that ain't been used

Even our piano in the parlor
Gm7 C7 F6
Daddy bought for ten cents on the dollar
F6 G7
Second hand pearls, I'm wearing second hand curls

I never get a single thing that's new
Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 Cm7 Gm7 D7 Gm7
Even Jake, the plumber, he's the man I adore
F6 Bbm7 F6 Bbm7 G7 G7 C7
He had the nerve to tell me he's been married before
F6 G7 Gm7 C7 F6
Everyone knows that I'm just SECOND HAND ROSE from Second Avenue

Each one in the family, kicks the whole day long

Everyone's disgusted, everything is wrong
Second handed doggie, second handed cat
Second handed welcome, second handed mat
I think father's head is made of wood
He brings home lots of things that ain't no good

I'm wearing second hand shoes, second hand hose

All the girls hand me their second hand beaux
Even my pajamas when I don 'em
Have somebody else's initials on 'em
Second hand rings, I'm sick of second hand things
I never got what other girlies do
Once while strolling through the Ritz a girl got my goat
She nudged her friend and said, “Oh look, there's my last year’s coat!”
Everyone knows that I'm just SECOND HAND ROSE
From Second Avenue
Send In The Clowns
Stephen Sondheim

Eb6 Ebsus Eb6 Ebmaj7

Isn't it rich? Are we a pair?
Eb6 Abmaj7
Me here at last on the ground, you in mid-air
Ab6 Bb7 Ab Bb
Send in the clowns?
Eb6 Ebsus Eb6 Ebmaj7
Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve?
Eb6 Abmaj7
One who keeps tearing around, one who can't move
Ab6 Bb Fm7 Eb6
Where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Cm7 Dm7 Gm7
Just when I'd stopped opening doors,
Dm7 Gm7 Cm7
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours
G6 Eb6 F7 Ab6 G7sus
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Fm7b5 Gm7 Fm7 Bb Ab Bb
Sure of my lines no one is there.
Eb6 Ebsus Eb6
Don't you love farce? My fault, I fear
Ebmaj7 Eb6 Abmaj7
I thought that you'd want what I want, sorry, my dear!
Ab6 Bb7
But where are the clowns
Bb9
Quick, send in the clowns
Eb6 Ebsus Eb6 Ebsus
Don't bother, they're here.
Eb6 Ebsus Eb6 Ebmaj7
Isn't it rich? Isn't it queer?
Eb6 Abmaj7
Losing my timing this late in my career.
Ab6 Bb7 Ab Bb
And where are the clowns?
Bb9
There ought to be clowns
Eb6 Ebsus Eb6
Well, maybe next year

The shadow of your smile
B7 Em7 A7
When you are gone
Am7
Will color all my dreams
D7 Gmaj7
And light the dawn
Cmaj7 Am6 B7 Em7 Em7/d
Look into my eyes, my love, and see
Em6 F#7 F#m7 B7
All the lovely things you are to me
F#m7
Our wistful little star
B7 Em7 A7
Was far too high
Am7
A teardrop kissed your lips
D7 Bm7b5 E7
And so did I
Am7 Cm7
Now when I remember spring
F7 Bm7 E7
And every lovely thing
A7 Eb7
I will be remembering
Am7 D7 G6
The shadow of your smile
She Touched Me
Ira Levin/Milton Schafer

G7+5 C6 Cmaj7 C#dim7

She touched me, she put her hand near mine and then
Dm7 Dmmaj7
She touched me
Dm6 Ebdim7 C6 E7+5
I felt a sudden tingle when she touched me
Fmaj7 D6 G9 G6 Cdim7 G7
A sparkle, a glow!
G7+5 C6 Cmaj7 C#dim7 Dm7 Dmmaj7
She knew it, it wasn’t accidental, no, she knew it
Dm6 Ebdim7 C6 E7+5
She smiled and seemed to tell me so all through it
Fmaj7 D6 G7 C6 Dm7 D#dim7 C6
She knew it, I know
Gm7 C7 Gm7 C9 F6
She’s real, and the world is alive and shining
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7 A9 Dm7 G9
I feel, such a wonderful drive towards valentining
G7+5 C6 Cmaj7 C#dim7
She touched me, I simply have to face the fact
Dm7 Dmmaj7
She touched me,
Dm6 Ebdim7 C6 E7 E7+5 Am7 Dm7b5
Control myself and try to act as if I remember my name,
Cdim7 C6 C7+5 Ab7
But she touched me, she touched me,
C6 Am7 Dm9 G7 C6
And suddenly, nothing is the same!
She's Funny That Way
Richard Whiting/Neil Moret

D6 A7 D6 A7
I'm not much to look at, nothing to see
D6 A7 Am6 B7
Just glad I'm living and happy to be
G6 Gm7
I got a woman, crazy for me
D6 E7 Em7 A7
She's funny that way
D6 A7 D6 A7
I can't save a dollar, ain't worth a cent
D6 A7 Am6 B7
She'd never holler, she'd live in a tent
G6 Gm7
I got a woman, crazy for me
Em7 A6 D6
She's funny that way
Gm7 D6 A7 D6
Though she'd love to work and slave for me every day
Gm7 D6 Bm7 E7 Em7 A7
She'd be so much better off if I went away
D6 A7 D6 A7
But why should I leave her, why should I go?
D6 A7 Am6 B7
She'd be unhappy without me, I know
G6 Gm7
I got a woman, crazy for me
Em7 A6 D6
She's funny that way
Gm7 D6 A7 D6
When I hurt her feelings once in a while
Gm7 D6 Bm7 E7 Em7 A7
Her only answer is one little smile
G6 Gm7
I got a woman, crazy for me
Em7 A D
She's funny that way
Skylark
Hoagy Carmichael/Johnny Mercer

Eb6 Fm7 Gm7 Abmaj7 Ebmaj7 Gm7 Abmaj7

Skylark have you anything to say to me?
Gm7 Cm7 Fm7 F7
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Bb7 Eb6
Is there a meadow in the mist
Cm7 F#dim7 Fm7 Bb7
Where someone's waiting to be kissed?
Eb6 Fm7 Gm7 Abmaj7 Ebmaj7 Gm7 Abmaj7
Skylark, have you seen a valley green with spring?
Gm7 Cm7 Fm7 F7
Where my heart can go a journeying
Eb6
Over the shadows and the rain
E6 Eb6 Bbm7 Eb7
To a blossom covered lane
Abmaj7 Adim7
And in your lonely flight
Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 Dm7b5
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Gm7b5 C7 Fm7
Wonderful music faint as a will o' the wisp
Bb7 Eb7 Abmaj7
Crazy as a loon
G6 Em7 A7 D7 G6 Bb7
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon

Eb6 Fm7 Gm7 Abmaj7 Ebmaj7 Gm7 Abmaj7

Gm7 Cm7 Fm7 F7
Skylark I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
Bb7 Eb6
So if you see them anywhere
E6 Bb7 Eb6
Won't you lead me there
Smoke Gets In Your Eyes
Jerome Kern/Otto Harbach

C6 Dm7 G7 C E7+5
They asked me how I knew my true love was true
F6 F#dim7 Cmaj7 Am7 F6
I, of course, replied, "Something here inside
G7 Bb7b5 Ab7b5 G7
Cannot be denied."
C6 Dm7 G7 C E7+5
They said, "Someday you'll find all who love are blind,
F6 F#dim7 Cmaj7 Am7 F6
When your heart's on fire, you must realize,
G7 C6 C9 Bb9
Smoke gets in your eyes."
Ab6 Ab7+5 Ab6 Abdim7
So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed to
Eb7 Adim7 Eb7
Think they could doubt my love
Ab6 Ab7+5 Ab6 Abdim7 Bb7b5 A7 Ab7b5 G7
Yet today my love has flown away; I am without my love.
F#m7b5 Fm7 Em7 Ebdim7 Dm7 G7+5 G#dim7 Am7 Ab7 Gm7 Gb9
Now laughing friends deride tears I cannot hide,
Fmaj7 F#m7b5 B7 Em7 Am7
So I smile and say, "When a lovely flame
Dm7 G7 C6
Dies, smoke gets in your eyes."
Someone To Watch Over Me
Ira Gershwin/George Gershwin

Eb6 Ebmaj7 Eb6 Eb7

There's a saying old, says that love is blind,
Abmaj7 Cm7 F7 F7
Still were often told, "Seek and ye shall find."
Fm7 Bb7 Fm Bb7 Eb6 Fm7 Bb7
So I'm going to seek a certain girl I've had in mind
Eb6 Ebmaj7 Eb6 Eb7
Looking everywhere, haven't found her yet
Abmaj7 Cm7 F7 F7
She's the big affair I cannot forget
Fm7 Bb7 Bb6 Eb6 Eb6 D7
Only girl I ever think of with regret
Gm7 C7 Gm7
I'd like to add her initials to my monogram
Bb6 Gm7 Cm7 F7 Bb6 Ab6 Gm7 Bb7
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
Eb6 Eb7 Ab6 Abdim7
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
Eb Gbdim7 Bb7 Edim7
I hope that she turns out to be
Fm7 C7 F7 Bb7 Eb Db7+5 Abmaj7 Bb7
Someone who'll watch, over me
Eb6 Eb7 Ab6 Abdim7
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
Eb6 Gbdim7 Bb7 Edim7 Fm C7 F7 Bb9 Eb6 Abmaj7
I know I could, always be good to one who'll watch, over me
Eb6 Gm7 Ab6 Abmaj7 Ab6 Eb6 Ebmaj7
Although she may not be the girl some see as pretty
D7 G7 C7 F7 Bb7
To my heart, she carries the key
Eb6 Eb7 Ab6 Abdim7
Won't you tell her please to put on some speed
Eb6 Gbdim7 Bb7 Edim7 Fm7 C7 F7 Bb9 Eb6
Follow my lead, oh, how I need, someone to watch, over me
Something Good
Somewhere
Sondheim/Bernstein

There's a place for us

Somewhere a place for us

Peace and quiet and open air

Wait for us

Somewhere

There's a time for us

Some day a time for us

Time together with time to spare

Time to look, time to care

Someday

Somewhere

We'll find a new way of living

We'll find a way of forgiving

Somewhere

There's a place for us

A time and place for us

Hold my hand and we're half way there

Hold my hand and I'll take you there

Somehow

Someday

Somewhere
Sophisticated Lady
Duke Ellington/Irving Mills

F7 Bbm7 Gb7 F7 E7 Eb7 Abmaj7

They say into your early life romance came
Ab7 G7 Gb7 F7 Bb7
And in this heart of yours burned a flame
Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 Db7 Cm7b5 F7b9
A flame that flickered one day and died away
Bbm7 Gb7 F7 E7 Eb7 Abmaj7
Then, with disillusion deep in your eyes
Ab7 G7 Gb7 F7 Bb7
You learned that fools in love soon grow wise
Bbm7 Eb7
The years have changed you, somehow
Abmaj7 Am7 D7
I see you now
Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 D7 Bm7b5 E7
Smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow
Am7 D7
Nonchalant,
Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 D7 Cm7 Bbm7b5
Diamonds shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant
Eb7 D7 F7
Is that all you really want?
Bbm7 Gb7 F7 E7 Eb7 Abmaj7
No, Sophisticated Lady, I know
Ab7 G7 Gb7 F7 Bb7
You miss the love you lost long ago
Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7
And when nobody is nigh you cry
Stardust
Stars Fell On Alabama
Frank Perkins/Mitchell Parish

Cmaj7 A7 Dm7 G7
We lived our little drama
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 F#dim7
We kissed in a field of white
Dm7 G7
And stars fell on Alabama
Em7 A7 Dm7 G7
Last night
Cmaj7 A7 Dm7 G7
I can't forget the glamor
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 F#dim7
Your eyes held a tender light
Dm7 G7
While stars fell on Alabama
Cmaj7 F7 Em7 A7
Last night
Dm7 G7 Em7 Am7
I never planned in my imagination
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 A7
A situation so heavenly
Dm7 Dm6-E7 Am7
A fairy land where no one else could enter
F#m7 B7 Emaj7 G7
And in the center just you and me
Cmaj7 A7 Dm7 G7
My heart beat like a hammer
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 F#dim7
My arms wound around you tight
Dm7 G7
And stars fell on Alabama
Cmaj7
Last night
Stompin' At The Savoy
Benny Goodman/Andy Razaf/Chick Webb/Edgar Sampson

C7 F6
Savoy, the home of sweet romance
C7 F6
Savoy, it wins you with a glance
F#dim7 Gm7 C7 F6 Fdim Gm7 C7
Savoy, gives happy feet a chance to dance
C7 F6
Your form just like a clinging vine
C7 F6
Your lips so warm and sweet as wine
F#dim7 Gm7 C7 F6 Cm7 F7
Your cheek so soft and close to mine, divine
Bb7
How my heart is singing
Eb7 Dbm6 Eb7
While the band is swinging
Ab7 A7 Ab7
I'm never tired of romping
Db7 C7
And stomping with you at the Savoy
C7 F6
What joy - a perfect holiday
C7 F6
Savoy, where we can glide and sway
F#dim7 Gm7 C7 F6 Fdim Gm7 C7
Savoy, let me stomp away with you

Mel Torme

G7+5 Cmaj7 Gm7 C7

Just arrived on the 7:10
Fmaj7 Bb7
Thought I'd see the old gang again
Em7 A7
But you know how they come and go
Dm7 Fm6 Cmaj7 G7+5
I'm just a Stranger In Town
Cmaj7 Gm7 C7
Everywhere, everyone I see
Fmaj7 Bb7
Seems to wonder who I can be
Fdim7 Em7
And I swear no one seems to care
Dm7 Fm6 Cmaj7 B7
About a Stranger in Town
Em7 Emmaj7 Em7 Em6
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street
F#m7b5 C7 B7
The weeds had grown 'round the gate
Em7 Emmaj7 Em7 Em6
Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet
Dm7 G7+5
But it looks like I'm too late
Cmaj7 Gm7 C7
Guess I'll leave on the 12:02
Fmaj7 Bb7
Can't believe that there's no more you
Em7 A7
Is there nothing for me?
Am7 D7 Dm7 G7+5 Cmaj7
Will I always be a stranger in my own home town?
Summer Wind
Bradtke/Mayer/Mercer

The summer wind came blowin' in from across the sea

It lingered there, to touch your hair and walk with me

All summer long we sang a song and then we strolled that golden sand

Two sweethearts and the summer wind

Like painted kites, those days and nights they went flyin' by

The world was new beneath a blue umbrella sky

Then softer than a piper man, one day it called to you

I lost you to the summer wind

The autumn wind, and the winter winds they have come and gone

And still the days, those lonely days, they go on and on

And guess who sighs his lullabies through nights that never end

My fickle friend, the summer wind

Summertime
George Gershwin/Ira Gershwin

Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7

Summertime and the livin' is easy
Dm7 F6 E7sus E7
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7
Your Daddy's rich and your ma is good lookin'
C6 Am7 D6 Dm7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7
So hush little baby, and don't you cry
Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7
One of these mornings you're gonna to rise up singing
Dm7 F6 E7sus E7
You'll spread your wings and take to the sky
Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7
But till that morning there's a nothin' can harm you
C6 Am7 D6 Dm7 Am7 E7 Am7 E7
With daddy and mammy standin' by your side
Take The 'A' Train
Tangerine
Victor Scherzinger/Johnny Mercer

Tangerine, she is all they claim

With her eyes of night and lips as bright as flame

Tangerine, when she dances by

Senoritas stare and caballeros sigh

And I've seen toasts to Tangerine

Raised in every bar across the Argentine

Yes, she has them all on the run

But her heart belongs to just one

Her heart belongs to Tangerine

Tangerine, she is all they say

With mascara'd eye and chapeaux by Dache
Tangerine, with her lips of flame
If the color keeps, Louis Philippe's to blame
And I've seen clothes on Tangerine
Where the label says "From Macy's Mezzanine".
Yes, she's got the guys in a whirl
But she's only fooling one girl
She's only fooling Tangerine
That Old Black Magic
Arlen/Mercer

That old black magic has me in its spell

That old black magic that you weave so well

Those icy fingers up and down my spine

The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine

The same old tingle that I feel inside

And then that elevator starts its ride

And down and down I go, round and round I go

Like a leaf that's caught in the tide

I should stay away but what can I do?

I hear your name and I'm aflame

Aflame with such a burning desire

That only your kiss can put out the fire

'Cause you are the lover I have waited for

The mate that fate had me created for

And every time your lips meet mine

Darling, down and down I go, round and round I go

In a spin, loving the spin that I'm in

Under that old black magic called love

That's All
Alan Brandt/Bob Haymes

Cmaj7 Dm7 Em7 Dm7

I can only give you love that lasts forever
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7
And a promise to be near each time you call

For you and you alone

That's all
Cmaj7 Dm7 Em7 Dm7

Will warm the winter night

That's all

All I have are these arms to enfold you
Am D7 Dm7 G7
And a love time can never destroy
Cmaj7 Dm7 Em7 Dm7
If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Am7 Am6
Say it's me that you'll adore
Dm7 F#dim7
For now and ever more
Em7 A7
That's all
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
That's all

Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Bbm7 Eb7
And I'd like to be safe in bed
Abmaj7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb Cm7
Skies are weeping, while the world is sleeping
Fm7 F7 Fm7 Bb7
Trouble heaping on our head
Ebmaj7 Fm7 Bb7 Eb6
It is vain to remain and chatter
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Bbm7 Eb7
And to wait for a clearer sky

Helter skelter, I must run for shelter
F7 Bb7 Eb6 ( Fm7 Bb7 )

Till There Was You
Meredith Wilson

There were bells on a hill

But I never heard them ringing

No I never heard them at all

Till there was you

There were birds in the sky

But I never saw them winging

No I never saw them at all

Till there was you

Then there was music and wonderful roses

They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows of dawn and dew

There was love all around

But I never heard it singing

No I never heard it at all

Till there was you

When You're Smiling
Whisper Not
Witchcraft
Carolyn Leigh/Cy Coleman

Those fingers in my hair

That sly come hither stare

That strips my conscience bare

It's witchcraft

And I've got no defense for it

The heat is too intense for it

What good would common sense for it do?

'Cause it's witchcraft,

Wicked witchcraft,

And although I know it's strictly taboo

When you arouse the need in me

My heart says yes indeed in me

Proceed with what your leading me to

It's such an ancient pitch

But one I wouldn't switch

'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
