[Bb] 50% is from a show called Ballroom that happened to be written [Eb] by my very close friends for
[F] many, many years, Marilyn and [Eb] Alan Bergman.
I want to introduce my dear friends, almost
like my [Bbm] parents, who wrote the [Eb] song we're going to record now, [Ab] Marilyn and Alan Bergman.
[Bb] [Gm]
[Cm] It's an interesting song [Ab] because the woman [Gm] in the play [Eb] is having an affair [Bb] with a married
man [F] and so she doesn't have 100% of him.
So it's a very interesting song [Eb] to act.
And I
[C] had fun the other night [Eb] because I asked my husband to play the part of [Ab] the lover on the phone.
Hello.
[Eb] Hi.
You won't have to wait for me [Abm] this time.
I'm whole [Gm] packed.
[Eb] Oh, [Bbm] honey, I can't [Eb] go.
Oh, no.
I [Ab] forgot that I promised the kids that I'd take them [Bb] to their game.
They want their mom
to go [Gm] too.
I made up a [Cm] story that I was packed and we were going to go away for [Fm] the weekend and
he had [Abm] to cancel it.
So she sings this song about [Eb] being in love with a married man.
I don't iron his shirts.
[Gm] [F]
I don't open his [Gm] mail.
[Eb]
I don't know the jokes he tells or the
[Bbm] songs he
[Eb] hums.
Though I may [Ab] hold him
[Bbm] all through [Gm] the night, [Cm] he may not be [C] here [Bb] when
[Ab]
the morning [Eb] comes.
[Db] I don't pick out his [Eb]
ties.
[Bb] [Eb] I don't butter his [Eb] toast.
I don't make him
[Ab]
feel lonely.
But I feel when [Eb] he's in my [Abm] arms, he's [Bb] where [Eb] he [Bbm] wants to be.
[Eb] Barbara may not have a formal [Ab] musical education, but she thinks like an arranger.
[Bbm] I think that's
really [A] her genius.
The sense [C] of him [Abm] or any [N] percent of him.
[F] many, many years, Marilyn and [Eb] Alan Bergman.
