And now, an evening [Eb] with Gene Pitney.
I [Ab] walked and walked down the street before, but [Eb] the [Cm] pavement always made a [Fm] beating my [Bbm] feet before.
[Bb] I walked down [Db] [Gm] the [Cm] street before, [F] [Fm] but the pavement [Bb] always made a beating my feet before.
[Eb]
[Ab] [Eb] [Ab] Now [Eb] there are [Ab] lilacs [Eb] in [Ab] [Eb] the [Ab] heart of town.
[Eb] [Ab] Can [Gm] you hear a [Cm] lilac in any [Ab] other part of town?
Does it jam [Gm] and [Ab] fall [Fm] [Gm]
as [Cm] we [F] talk?
[Fm] No, it cuts on [Bb] the knees [Eb] where you lay.
[Ab] [Dm] And though I'm [G] [Ab]
souring, spilling, just [Db] to know [Eb] you I'm near.
[Cm]
[D] [Am] The overpowering feeling [D] that [Em] any second [Am] you may [D] suddenly [Bb]
appear.
[Fm] [Bb] [Eb]
[Ab] [Eb] [Ab] [Eb] People stop [Ab] and stare, [Eb] [Ab] they [Eb]
don't [Ab] bother me.
[Eb] [Ab] For [Gm] there's nowhere [Cm] else on earth that [Ab] I would rather be.
[Bb] There's [Fm] a time, [Gm] oh I [Ab] [B] [Dbm] don't care if I [Gb] [Gbm] can't be here on the [B] street where [E] you [A] live.
[Gbm]
Here on [B] the street where [Gbm] you live.
Can't be here on the [B] street [Db] where you [E] [B] live.
[E]
[N]
[Dm]
Each night I meant to say, I'd miss her more each day.
But I'd [C] forget it, I'd never [Dm] said it.
I'd pass the flower shop, Lord knows I meant to stop.
But I'd [C] say tomorrow, perhaps [Dm] tomorrow.
[Gm]
Tomorrow there'd [E] be time,
[Bb] [Am] there'd always [F] be another spring.
[Gm] Time to make [C] her laughter ring, [F]
time [Bb] to [F] give [A] her [Em] [A] everything.
Oh [D] my [G]
Angelica, [A]
my [D] Angelica.
There's [G] so much you never knew.
So much I always meant [D] to say [Gbm]
and [G] do [Gbm] for you,
[G] for you,
[D] Angelica.
[C]
[Bb]
[A]
[Dm]
And then the cold winds came, and when I spoke her name, [C] and held her near me, she [Dm] couldn't hear me.
The shadow had been cast, too many springs had passed, [C] for Angelica,
[Dm] Angelica.
[Gm] Now in my silent room, [Am]
I send the flowers [F] that I buy,
[Gm] as they [C] slowly fade and die.
[F] Watered by [A] the [G] tears [A] I cry for [D] my
[Em] Angelica, [A]
my [D] Angelica.
There's so
[G] much you never knew.
So much I always meant [D] to say [Gbm]
and [G]
do [D]
for [Bm] you, [Gbm]
[G] for [A] you, [G]
[D] Angelica,
[C]
[D] Angelica.

Thank you very much, and good evening.
You know, that's a beautiful song, Angelica.
You know, if I was singing that in Italy, it'd probably be Angelina.
[C] And it's kind of a cue for my next song.
We're not singing a song called Angelina, but we are singing an Italian song.
And I'd like to ask you to do something for me tonight.
This song has been number one for a long, long time for me in Italy, and sold a lot of copies for me.
But on the record, we had a group that was answering me, a chorus.
And we got something tonight that they call an idiot card.
Really, an idiot card.
That's usually used for me.
Out here in front, if I don't know my words, you'll see a few here after a while.
But tonight we'd like to use it for you, and ask
