Fifty Percent Chords by Barbra Streisand

[Eb] Hello?
Hi.
Hi.
You're not going to have to wait for me this time.
I'm all packed.
Honey, I_ _
Why?
What happened?
_ I forgot that I promised the kids I'd take them to their game.
[Ab] They want their mom to go too.
Oh, [G] well, of course.
I understand.
[Gm] It's their mother and you can't [Eb] disappoint your kids, honey.
[Ab] We'll go next weekend.
[Fm] Okay.
For sure.
[Gm] I promise you.
[Eb] Next weekend for sure.
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ [F] Of course.
I still love you. _ _
_ [Bb] I miss you too. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Bye, honey.
[Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I don't iron his shirts.
[Gm] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] I don't open [Gm] his mail.
[Eb] _ _ _ I don't know all the jokes he tells, all the [Bbm] songs he _ [Eb] hums, though I may [Ab] hold _ him,
[Bb] all through [Gm] the _ night.
[Cm] _ He may not [Ab] be [Fm] here
[Eb] _ [Ab] when the morning _
[Eb] comes.
_ [Ab] _ I don't pick out [Eb] his [Bb] ties,
_ _ [Eb] [Ab] I don't butter [Eb] his toast,
_ _ [Ab] but I feel when [Eb] he's in my [Abm] arms
[Gm] he's where [Eb] he [Bbm] wants to _ [Eb] be.
We have [Ab] no memory
_ [Bb] that is [Gm] sweet with time,
_ [Cm] and I doubt if [Fm] he'll spend
_ [Abm] New Year's Eve [Eb] with me.
_ [Bbm] I don't share his [Ab]
neck,
_ [Abm] I don't wear [Gm] his ring,
[Cm] _ _ there's [Fm] no piece of [Ab] paper _
_ saying [Bb] that he's _ [Cm] mine.
But he says [Ab] he loves me,
[Abm] and I [Gm] believe it's true.
[Cm] _
Doesn't that make [Fm] someone
_ _ [G] _
_ belong to you?
[Ab] _ So I don't share [Eb] his [Bb] name,
_ _ [Ab] so I don't [Eb] wear his [Bb] ring,
_ [Ab] _ so there's no [Eb] piece of [Bb] paper
_ [Eb] saying [Db] that he's mine.
[Bb] So we [Ab] don't have memories,
_ [Abm] I have [Eb] enough memories.
[Cm] _
_ I've washed [Fm] enough mornings,
I've dried [Eb] enough evenings,
I've [Ab] had enough birthdays
to know [A] what I want.
_ _ [B] _ _ Life is _ [E]
anyone's guess,
_ _ the [B] constant _
[E] surprise.
_ [A] [E] Though you don't plan to fall in [Ab] love,
when you [Dbm] fall, [Bm] you fall.
_ [E] [Bm] And I'd rather [A] 50% [C] of him,
[Abm] or any percent [Dbm] of him,
[Gbm] than [Gb] all [Gbm] _
_ _ [Am] anybody.
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
