[F#m]
[D] [F] [D#]
[C#] [F#] Have you [C#] seen the well-to [F#]-do [E] upon Lenox [A] Avenue?
On that famous [E] thoroughfare with their noses in the [G#] air?
High hats and colored collars, [D] white [G#] flats and fifteen [A#m] dollars,
Spending every dime [G#m] [A#] for a wonderful [F#m] time.
If you're blue and you don't know where to go to,
Why don't you go where [C#] Harlem's [F#m] wooden on the river?
Mangos down upon the bevy,
A high round from down the levee,
[G#m] All this is [F#m] wooden on the river.
[Bm] That's where each and every Lulu fell in [E] love.
[A] [Bm] Every Thursday evening [D] with her twelve [F#] foes,
[F] [F#m] Robbing out a home, come with me and we'll attend her,
Jews a-leaving, see them spend [G#m] their last two pence,
[F#m] Wooden on the river.
[C#] [F#m]
[E] [G#]
[F#m] Boy, look at that man putting on that [Dm] wrist.
You [C#] look at him, I [F#m] can't.
[G#]
[Bm] [E]
[F#m]
[C#] [N]
If you're blue and you don't know where to go [B] to,
Why don't you go where [C#] Harlem's wooden [D#] on the [F#m] river?
Mangos down upon the bevy,
A high round from down [F] the levee,
All this is wooden [F#m] on the river.
[Bm] That's where [E] each and every Lulu fell in love.
Every Thursday evening [F#m] with her twelve [B] foes,
Robbing [F#m] out a home, come with me and we'll attend her,
Jews a-leaving, see them spend [G#m] their last two pence,
[F#m] Wooden on [D] the river.
[F] [Bm] [E] [Bm]
[Am] [F#m] [G#]
[G] [F#m] Come with me and we'll attend her,
Jews a-leaving, see them spend [G#m] their last two pence,
Wooden [F#m] on the river.
