[Eb] [Ab]
Oh, will you never [E] let me be?
[Ab] Oh, will you never [Fm] set [Cm] me free?
[Fm] [Bb] The [Eb] ties that [Ab] bound us are [Db] still around [Bb] us
There's [Abm] no escape that I [Bb] can see
[Db] [G]
[Ebm] And [Ab] still those little [Db] things remain
[Fm] [Bbm] [Cm] That bring me happiness [Bb] [Db] or
[C] [A] pain
[Ab] A cigarette that [Bbm] bears a [Db] lipstick's traces
[Cm]
An airline ticket to [Gm] romantic [Eb] places
[Gb] And [Ab] still [Fm] my heart [Bbm] is bling
[C] [F] These [D] foolish [Ab] things [Gm] remind me [Db] of you
[Cm] A tinkling piano [Db] in the [Bbm] next [Bb] apartment
[Cm] [Ab] Those stumbling [Cm] words that told you [Fm] what [Eb] my heart [Gb] meant
A [F] [D] fairground's painted [Bbm] swings
[Bb] [Ebm] These foolish [Ab] [D] things [Bbm] remind [Eb] me of [Ab] you
[D] You [F] [G]
[Cm] came, [D]
you [G] saw, [F] [Cm]
you conquered [F] me
[Db] [Eb]
When [Cm] you did that [Ab] to [G] me
[Eb] I knew [Gb] somehow [Bbm] this had to [Eb] be
[Cm]
The winds [Fm] of [Ab] March [Bbm] that make my [Eb] heart a [Db] dancer
[Fm]
A telephone that rings, [C] but [Eb] who's to [Ebm] answer?
Oh, [Ab] how [F] the ghost [Bbm] of you clings
[C] [Dbm] [Gbm] [Am] These [D] foolish things [G] remind [Ab] me of you
[Db] [C] [Ab]
[Cm] First [C] daffodils and [Bbm] long, excited [Eb] cables
[Fm]
And candlelights [C] on [D] little [Cm] corner [Ab] [Eb] tables
[Ab]
[Db] [Ab] And still my [Fm]
eyes [Dbm] wink
[Cm] [F] These foolish [Bb]
[Cm] [Bb] things remind me [Db] of you
[G] [Db] [Ab] The [Cm] park at evening [Bbm] when the bell [Cm] has [G] sounded
[Ab]
[Cm] The yieldy France [Ab] with all [Bb] the [Dm] girls [Ebm] [Ab] around [A] it
[Ebm] [Ab] The beauty that is [Eb] springs
[Fm] [Eb] [F] These [G] foolish [Ab] things remind me of [Eb] [D] you
[G] [Cm]
How strange, [Fm]
how [G] sweet
[A]
[Cm] To find [F] you [Db] still
[Eb]
These things [Ab]
are dear to [Gm] me
[F] They [Eb] seem [Am] to bring [Bbm] you near [Eb] to me
[Ab] The sigh [G] of midnight [A] [Bbm] trains and empty [Ab] [Db] stations
[Ab]
Silk stockings thrown aside,
[Bb] dance [Ab] [A] invitations
[Ebm]
Oh, [Eb] how the [Fm] ghost of you [Bbm] [C] clings
These [F] foolish [Gm]
[D] things [Bbm] remind [Eb] [Ab] me of [Fm] you
[Bbm] [Ab]
Gardenia perfume [Bbm]
lingering on a [Eb] pillow
Wild [Ab] strawberries, only seven [Gm] francs [Cm] a kilo
[G]
[Gb] And [Ebm] still my [F] heart [Bbm] has [Gb] wings
[A] These [Ab] foolish [Bb] things remind [C] [Db] me of you
[Ab] The smile of garble [Bbm]
and the scent [Eb] of roses
The [Fm] waiters whistling [Bb] as the [Db] last bar [G] closes
[Gb]
The song [F] that Crosby [Bbm]
[C] sings
[Cm] [Gm] These foolish [Bbm] things [Db] remind [Ab] me of [Cm] [D] [G] you
[Cm]
How strange, [Fm]
[Em] how [Db] sweet
[Cm]
To [Eb] find [C] [F] you
[Ab] still
[Db] [Eb] These
[Cm] [Fm] things are [Cm] dear to [G] me
[Bbm] They [Gb] seem to bring [Bbm] you near to [Gb] [Em] me
[Ab]
The scent of smoldering [Bbm] leaves, the [G] wail of [Eb] steamers
Two [Ab] lovers on the street [Gm] who walk [Cm] like [G] [Gb] dreamers
Oh, how [C] [Fm] the ghost [Db] of you clings
[F] These foolish [Gm]
things [Eb] remind [Db]
[F] me [Eb] of [Ab]
you
