Key: A
Introduction:
E7 A D Dm7 A
They're writing songs of love, but not for me
B7 E7 D A
A lucky star's above, but not for me
A7 D Bm7 Bm7(b5) Cº F#m
With love to lead the way, I've found more clouds of gray
F#m7 A Bm7 Bm7(b5) E7 Bm7(b5) E7
Than any Russian play could guarantee
A D Dm7 A
I was a fool to fall and get that way
B7 E7 A
Heigh-ho! Alas! And also lack-a-day
A7 D Cº A B7
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss
Bm7(b5) E7 A
I guess she's not for me
E7 A D Dm7 A
She's knocking on a door, but not for me
B7 E7 D A
She'll plan a two by four, but not for me
A7 D Bm7 Bm7(b5) Cº A F#m
I know that love's a game I'm puzzled, just the same
F#m7 A Bm7 Bm7(b5) E7
Was I a moth or flame I'm all at sea
A D Dm7 A
It all began so well but what an end
B7 E7 A
This is the time a fellow needs a friend
A7 D Cº A B7
When every happy plot ends with a marriage knot
Bm7(b5) E7 A
And there's no knot for me
