_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ The concert [Fm] was over _ in [Db] Carnegie Hall. _
_ [Ab] _ _ [Cm] The maestro [Fm] took bow [E] after bow.
_ [Bbm] _ _
[Ab] He said, my [D] dear friends, I [Gm] have given [F] my all.
_ [Bb] I'm sorry, _
_ [D] it's all [Gm] over _ now.
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Db] When from the gallery _ _ way _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] there _ _ suddenly _ [Bb]
came _ _ _ this [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ mournful _ cry.
_ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ Mr.
Paganini, _ [F] _
_ [Bbm] _ please [F] claim [Db] my rhapsody.
_ [Ab] _ _ And if you [Dbm]

_ _ _ _ And [Fm]
if you [Bb] can't sing [Db] _ it, _ you'll simply have [Ab] to _
_ [Bbm] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ [F] _ _
[Cm] Mr.

_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] Paganini, _ _ [Bbm] _ now don't you be a _ [G] meanie.
_ [Ab] What have you [Dbm] up your sleeve?
Come [Ab] on and spring [F] it
_ _ And [Ab] _
[Bb] if you can't spring [Gm] _ [Eb] it
_ [Bbm] You'll [Eb] simply have to

[Abm] Won't you [Gm] try to swing it?
[Cm] And _ [Bb] _
if the boys are bopping _
[Db] They don't need a stopping time
[Gm] Do-do [G]-do-do-do-do [Eb]-do-do-ya
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-ya
Mr. _ [Gm] _ Beganini
[Am] _
[Db] We breathlessly _ _ await
[Cm] _ The _ [Ab] masterful _ [Gb] _
_ [C] _ [Eb] swing it
_ [A] _
_ [Bb] And if the boys are bopping
There [Db] _ _ ain't no need in stuttering
Just [Abm] _ get a [Gb]-just get a-
A yellow [Bbm] basket
_ [Eb] We do [F] not, but we [Am] have heard your [Gm] repertoire
[C] And as a final bow
[G] We're greeting [D] you with rounds of [G] _ [Fm] applause
