Key: D
Introduction:
D D7M D6 Dm7
When I go to sleep, I never count sheep.
D Cº Em7 A7
I count all the charms about Linda
Dm7 A7 G/B A7
And lately, it seems, in all of my dreams,
Em7 A7 D
I walk with my arms about Linda.
G Em D
But what good does it do me?
D6 A7 F#7 E7 D
For Linda doesn't know I exist.
C#m7(b5) F#7 Bm Bm7
Can't help feeling gloomy
E7 Bm7(b5) Eº A7
Think of all the love that I've missed.
D D7M D6 D7M
We pass on the street, my heart skips a beat,
D Cº Em7 A7
I say to myself, "Hello, Linda."
Dm7 A7 G/B A7
If only she'd smile and stop for a while,
Em7 A7 D
And then I would get to know Linda.
G G/F# Em Em7 D F#m
But miracles still happen,
D A7 F#7 Am7 B7
And when my lucky star begins to shine,
Em7 G/B Gº A7 D Gº D6
With one lucky break I'll make Linda mine.
