The Man I Love (chrom)

THE MAN I LOVE
By: George & Ira Gershwin
Billie Holiday
Key: Eb

-1*  -1* -1* -1*  -1  -1* -2  3   3*
When the mel-low moon be-gins to beam 
3   3    3   3  -2   3  3* -3*   4
Ev-'ry night I dream a lit-tle dream 
-3* -3*  -3*    -3*    3*  -3* 4  -5   -5*
And of course Prince Charm-ing is the theme 
 5 -3*  5  3
The he for me 
-3*  -1* -1* -1*-1*-1 -1* -2  3   3*
Al-though I re-al-ize as well as you 
3  3   3   3   -3 -3*  4    -5   -5*
It is sel-dom that a dream comes true 
-5 4   -3*   4
To me it's clear 
 -3*   3*  3   3*
That he'll ap-pear 

 -3*  4   -3*   4  -3* 4*
Some day he'll come a-long, 
-3*  4 -3* 4*
The man I love 
-3*   4  -3*  4  -3*   4*
And he'll be big and strong 
 3* -3* 3* 4
The man I love 
 3*  -3* 3*  -3*  3* -4
And when he comes my way 
 3   3* 3  -3*  3*  3    3   3
I'll do my best to make him stay 
 -3*   4  -3* 4  -3*   4*
He'll look at me and smile 
 -3* 4  -3*   4*
I'll un-der-stand 
-3* 4 -3* 4
  -3*   4*
And in a lit-tle while 
  3*   -3* 3*  4
He'll take my hand 
 3*   -3*  3*  -3*  3*  -4
And though it seems ab-surd 
3  3*  3   -3*   3   -1*-1* -1*
I know we both won't say a word 

-1* -2 3  -2*   3   -5* -5* -5
May-be I shall meet him Sun-day 
-3* -4 -5   4    3  -3 -4
May-be Mon-day, may-be not 
 -1*  -2   3  -2*  3   -5* -5* -5
Still I'm sure to meet him one day 
-3* -4  -5   4  -3*  3* 3   -2   3    3*
May-be Tues-day will be my good news day 

 -3*    4  -3* 4  -3*  4*
He'll build a lit-tle home 
-3*    4   -3*  4*
Just meant for two 
 -3*   4   -3*   4 -3*  4*
From which I'll nev-er roam 
 3*  -3*     3*   4
Who would; would you? 
 3* -3* 3*  -3* 3* -4
And so all else a-bove 
 3   3*   3  -3*  3  -1*-1* -1*
I'm wait-ing for the man I love
