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