Introdução:
C F
Right from the start let's get one thing straight
C F
When it comes to the heart you can't legislate
Am G
Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
C F
Like the scene from the movie Citizen Kane
C F
One short moment with me remains
Am G
Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
C F
When Bernstein says now you take me
C F
Stuck in my mind one memory
Am G
I was crossing over to Jersey on the ferry
C F
As we pulled out another ferry pulled in
C F
A second between them was all it could have been
Am G
And on it was a girl waiting to get off
C G
A white dress is what she had on
C F
One second later she was gone
Am G
She never saw me at all,she carried a white parasol
C F
That was in eighteen ninety six
C F
And I bet a month hasn't gone by since
Am G
That I haven't thought of that girl on the Jersey ferry
C F
Now it's nineteen forty one
C F
Nigh half a century been and gone
Am G
And I still remember that girl with the white dress on
C F
A fleeting glimpse of chances missed
C F
Destiny or fates cruel twist
Am
She'd never even know that I exist,
G
How about that
C F
Time is the ticket and the years the toll
C F
Did I mention she carried a white parasol
Am G
Funny the things a fellow will remember sometimes
