[E] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ When she [G]
mentioned how her [Eb] aunt bit [G] off the _ spoon, she [Am] completely done [G]
[D] me _ in.
[G] And my heart went [Em] on a journey to the _ moon, [C] when she told about her [A] father and [D] the djinn.
_ _ [C] And I never saw [E] more [Am] enchanting _ _ forest [F] than the moment when she [C] shouted,
_ Move your _ blooming_
Yes, sir?
Is Miss Doolittle in?
Whom [G] shall I [Am] say is calling?
Freddie Iceford Hill.
Oh, if she doesn't [D] remember who I am, tell her I'm the chap who was snakering at [Em] her.
_ Yes, sir.
[G]
And would you give her these?
_ Yes, sir.
Wouldn't you like to [C] come in, sir?
They're having dinner, but you may wait in the [F] hall.
No, no, thank you.
I want to drink in [Em] the street where she [G] lives. _

_ [G] _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
I have often _ _ walked down this street before, _ [G] but the pavement [B] always stayed beneath [Dm] my [Em] feet _ before.
[G] _ All [F] at once am _ [Fm] I several [C] stories _ high, _ [Am] knowing I'm on [Em] the [Dm] street [A] where you [C] _ live.
_ _ [G] Are [C] there lilac trees _ _ [Em] in [C] the heart of town?
_ [F] [G] Can [Em] you hear a [B] lark in [D] any other [Em] part of town?
[Dm] _ [F] Does _ enchantment pour _ _ [C] out of every _ door?
No, [D] it's just on [G] the street where [C] you _ _ _ live.
_ [E] And _ oh, [Bm] _ [E] the [F] towering _ _ feeling, _ just to [Fm] _ know _ [A] somehow [C] you are _ _ near.
_ [Am] _ [Ab] The _ [C] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Am] overpowering [Gbm] _ feeling _
_ [B] that [E] any second you [B] may [Gb] suddenly _ [Em] appear. _ _ _
[G] _ People [C] stop and stare, _ they don't bother me, _ [Em] for there's nowhere else [B] on earth [D] that I would [Em] rather _ be.
[B] _ [Dm] Let the time go _ by, [D] _ I _ _ won't [C] care if _ I can [D] be here on [G] the street where you [C] live. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ Oh, sir, _ [G] _
[C] _ [D] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] I'm terribly sorry, sir.
Miss Doolittle says she doesn't want to see [Em] anyone ever again.
[Abm] But why?
She was [Am] unbelievable.
[A] So I've been told, sir.
[Dm] Is there any further message?
Yes.
[E] Tell her that I'll [Fm] wait.
[G] Oh, but it might [C] be days, sir, even weeks.
[D] Don't you see?
I'll be happier here. _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ People [C] stop and stare, _ they don't bother _ _ me, for there's [Em] nowhere else [Gb] on earth that [F] I would [Em] rather [F] _ [Em] be.
[G] _ [Dm] Let the time go _ _ by, [D] _
_ _ _ I won't [Em]
[C] care if _ I _ can [D] be here on the [G] street _
[F] where [G] you [C] _ live. _
