Tom:
Introdução:
Bm A7
I make a date for golf
F#m7 Bm
and you can bet your life it rains.
Em A7
I try to give a party
C7 B7
and the guy upstairs complains.
Em F#/G
I guess I'll go through life
F#m7 Bm
just catching colds and missing trains.
Em A7 D
Everything happens to me.
Bm A7
I never miss a thing.
F#m7 Bm
I've had the measles and the mumps.
Em A7
And every time I play an ace
C7 B7
my partner always trumps.
Em F#/G
I guess I'm just a fool
F#m7 Bm
who never looks before he jumps.
Em A7 D
Everything happens to me.
D Dm G
At first my heart thought you could break this jinx for me.
A7 Em G
That love would turn the trick to end despair.
B Aº/D F#m7
But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me.
D Bm Em B7
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air.
Bm F#m7
I've telegraphed and phoned
Bm Em
and sent an air mail special too.
A7 C7 B7
Your answer was goodbye and there was even postage due.
Em F#/G
I fell in love just once
F#/G B7
and then it had to be with you.
Em A7 D
Everything happens to me.
