A         D            Bm      
Should my heart not be humble, 
          C            Asus4 
should my eyes fail to see,  
A         D              Bm      
Should my feet sometimes stumble 
       C              Em  
on the way, stay with me. 
A           D

What'll I do?
            
          Dmaj7   Bm
What'll I do
     Dmaj7       Dm6
With just a photograph
   C#m7    F#7      B9     E6
To tell my troubles to?
          A
When I'm alone

You may see a stranger
B                    D#7
you may see a stranger
 E6
across a crowded room
    D#m7       C#m7    D#m7  Cm#7
And somehow you know,
    D#7       G#m  .  B7 .
you know even then
E  .      D#m7   .        C#m7   . .  .

Why Try to Change Me Now?

G  .  Gm6  . | F#m  .  Fo . |
Em .  A7  .  | Dmaj7
            
Em7         A  A7-9      F#m7        B7
   I'm sentimental, so I walk in the rain
Em7            A  A7-9  F#m7         B7-9
   I've got some habits even I can't explain
Em                     Gm6    F#m7        Fo
   Could start for the corner, turn up in Spain
Em                A7        Dmaj7     Bm7
   But why try to change me now?
            
I sit and daydream, I've got daydreams galore
Cigarette ashes, there they go on the floor

The Night We Called It a Day

            B7   B7-9   Emaj7    C#m9
There was a moon out in space,
      F#m7          B7       Emaj7     E6
But a cloud drifted over its face
    C#m7          F#7          B7    G7
You kissed me and went on your way
    F#m(9)   F(9)        Emaj7    E6
The night we called it a day
            
            B7   B7-9   Emaj7    C#m9
I heard the song of the spheres
       F#m7    B7         Emaj7     E6
Like a minor lament in my ears.
  C#m7       F#7           B7    G7
I hadn't the heart left to pray,
    F#m(9)   F(9)        E9      E7-9

I'm a Fool to Want You

      A+      Dm
I'm a fool to want you
      D7-9    Gm       Gm7 Gm6
I'm a fool to want you
          Bb/d  F6/c            Bm7-5
To want a love    that can't be true
              Bb7              A
A love that's there for others too
            
I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss not mine alone
           Dm/a     A7-9      Dm
To share a kiss the devil has known
            
Gm  Gmmaj7 Gm7   Gm6
Time   and time again
G7-9       Fmaj7      (F7 F6)
I said I'd leave you
Gm  Gmmaj7 Gm7   Gm6

Long and Wasted Years

G 
C 
 It's been such a long, long time 
G                    D 
 Since we loved each other and our hearts were true. 
         G 
One time, for one brief day, 
C                     G 
 I was the man for you.
Last night I heard you talking in your sleep
Saying things you shouldn't say.
Oh baby,
You just might have to go to jail someday.
Is there a place we can go?
Is there anybody we can see?
Maybe,
It's the same for you as it is for me.
I ain't seen my family in twenty years

Thirsty Boots

       C                Em
You've long been on the open road,
Dm                            G     G7/6
  You've been sleeping in the rain,
C                          Em
  From the dirty words and muddy cells
    Dm                       G
Your clothes are smeared and stained,
C                         Em
  But the dirty words and muddy cells
    Dn                G
Will soon be judged insane                       *)
        C        F
So only stop and rest yourself
     Dm           G     G7sus4
Till you are off again
