[C] [G] [F#] [Em]
[E] [B] [C]
[B] There are certain [A] musical comedy and motion picture scores that will [Em] always live in the
memories of those who saw the operetta or the picture.
One of these memorable scores is, I think, the one George Gershwin did for the grand
American [D#] opera, Forgey and Bess.
Axel's made a wonderful setting for [C#] some of these tunes, [D#] and here it is.
It's [C#] summertime
[D#] [Em] [F#m] and the living [Em] is easy.
[D#]
[C#] [D#] [C#] [C] Fish are jumping and the cotton [G] [B] is high.
[F#]
[B] [F] Oh, [Em] your daddy's [F#m] [Em] rich [D#] and your ma is good [Em] looking.
[D#] [Em]
[G] So [Em] hush little baby,
[A] [C] don't [Em] you cry.
[A] [Em] [A]
[Em] [E] [Em]
One of these [F#m] mornings
[Em] you're [F#m] gonna rise up [Em] to singing.
[F#m] [Em] [F#m]
[A] Then [Am] you'll spread your wings and [E] you'll take [B] to the sky.
[F#] [C] [B] [G] [B]
[F] [Em] Till that morning [F#m]
[Em] [F#m] there's nothing [Em] can harm you.
[F#m] [Em]
[D#] [A] [G] With daddy and mammy [Em] [A] [C] standing [Em] by.
[A] [Em]
[G#]
[G] [C] [G] [Gm] [D] [G]
[F#] [D#] [D]
[G] I've got plenty of money and [C] nothing's plenty [G] for [Bm] me.
[A] I've got no car, got no music, got [A#m] no misery.
[Dm] [G] But [C] with plenty of plenty, got a lock [E] on the door.
I pray [A] somebody's a-gonna rob them while they're down to [C#] making more.
[G]
[C] But, [G] but, ain't got no lock on the door, that's no way to be.
They can steal the rug from the floor, that's okay with [Am] me.
Cause the king's got a price, and [D] the blondie's got a fee.
But [C] I've got plenty of money and nothing's [G] plenty for me.
[E] I've got [B] my gal, got my [E] song, and heaven's the [C#] holy law.
[G] [Am] [G]
[D] [Cm]
[F#m] [B]
[D#] [F] One [G#] of these [Em]
[F#m] mornings [Em] you're [B]
gonna rise up [Em] to singing.
[B]
[Em] [F#m] [Em] Then [Am] you'll spread your wings [C#]
[B] [F#m] [F#]
[B] [F] and you'll take to the sky.
Till [Em] that morning [F#m] [C#] [F] there's [F#m] nothing [Em] can harm you.
