D6   D  Adim  Em7-5  A7     D6   D  Adim  Em7-5  - Heaven,              I'm in Heaven, 
A7      D          Dmaj7  Bm   F#m7-5    B7 And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak;
      G        G9     Fdim       Em7-5    D   F#m7-5  B7
And I seem to find the hap - pi - ness I seek
           G9       Fdim       A7      A7/6  A7   D    Adim  A7
When we're out to - geth - er dancing, cheek to cheek.
Heaven,              I'm in Heaven, And the cares that hang around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak When we're out to - geth - er dancing, cheek to cheek.
Bridge:
D7     G9      A7      D        D7       G9       A7        D   D7
Oh! I love to climb a mountain,  and to reach the highest peak     G9      A7        D       B7      G9      A7        D
But it doesn't thrill me half as much as dancing cheek to cheek.
D7     G9     A7      D      D7       G9   A7     D   D7
Oh! I love to go out fishing    in a river or a creek,
    G9      A7      D      B7     G9      A7        D But I don't enjoy it half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
D#m7                       Cm7 Dance with me -- I want my arm about you;

The charm about you will carry me through to
D6   D  Adim  Em7-5  A7     D6   D  Adim  Em7-5   Heaven,              I'm in Heaven,   A7      D          Dmaj7  Bm   F#m7-5    B7 And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak;] G        G9     Fdim       Em7-5    D   F#m7-5  B7And I seem to find the hap - pi - ness I seek    G9       Fdim       A7      A7/6  A7   D    G9  D When we're out to - geth - er dancing, cheek to cheek.

Memories- Cats
Midnight, not a sound on the pavementHas the moon lost a memory? She is smiling alone
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan
 
Memory, all alone in the moonlightI can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then I remember the time I knew what happiness wasLet the memory live again
\F#m          Every street lamp seems to beat
  A       D        AA fainter listening warning
F#m                    E Someone mutters and a street lamp flutters
    A       B       E
And soon it will be morning
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Dm                        Burnt out ends of smokey days
F             A#       F The stale cold smell of morning
Dm        C                      A street lamp dies another night is over
F      G     C Another day is dawning
 
F               DTouch me, it's so easy to leave me
                   A#                  All alone with the memory
                   AOf my days in the sun
       C              A#              Dm
If you touch me you'll understand what happiness is
C              F Look, a new day has begun
Think of me –
This is the Original version, not the one from the movie, not the one from broad way.
There is a variation in lyrics.
D            A                  G                     A7
Think of me, think of me fondly when we've said good-bye
   D        A               G                  A7
Remember me every so often, promise me you'll try
Bm                        F#7                      Bm7           E7
On that day, that not so distant day, when you are far away and free,
        D          Bm7     Em   F#7 G       A  D
If you ever find a moment, spare a thought for me.
Cm                                   G7                           Cm7
And though it's clear, though it was always clear, that this was never ment
   F to be
        Eb         Cm7    Fm   Gm  Ab    Bb Eb
If you happen to remember stop and think of me.
Ab       Bb              C#
Think of August when the trees were green
      Eb               Cm7       Fm         Bb7
Don't think about the way things might have been
Eb           Bb                 Ab         Bb7
Think of me, think of me waking silent and resigned
  Eb       Bb                 Ab              Bm7
Imagine me trying too hard to put you from my mind
Cm                             G7                   Cm7                F7
Think of me, please say you'll think of me whatever else you choose to do
           Eb         Cm7      Fm Gm   Ab    Bb7 Eb
There will never be a day when I won't think of you
Flowers fade, the fruits of summer fade. They have their seasons so do we
But please promise me that sometimes you will think
Ab                   Bb7 Eb
Ah..............etc  Of Me!
This one is more complicated than the ones I usually do, but you may simplify it if that
is your preference.

Dion - Runaround Sue  tabbed by Totto Strand
D  Bm G a
Here?s my story, it?s sad but true It?s about a girl that I once knew
She took my love, then ran around With every single guy in town
D Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di Bm Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di G Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di A Hey, hey, oooooooooohhhhh
 
D I guess I should have known it from the very start Bm This girl would leave me with a broken heart
G Now listen people what I'm telling you A "I keep away from Runaround Sue"
Her amazing lips and the smile from her face The touch of her hand and this girl?s warm embrace
So if you don't want to cry like I do Keep away from Runaround Sue.
G She like to travel around     D She?ll love you, then she?ll put you down   G Now, people let me put you wise A She goes out with other guys
And the moral of the story from the guy who knows I?ve been in love and my love still grows Ask any fool that she ever knew they'll say: Keep away from Runaround Sue

     D            D7-         G              G-    D                    A7             E  D
I've lived a live that's full.
I travelled each and every highway,
And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Regrets, I've had a few, But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do,And saw it thru without exemption.
I planned each chattered course,Each careful step along the byway,And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew, When I bit off more than I could chew,
            E7                  A7  -         F7              B-           E7        A7 -  D
But thru it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up, and spit it out.I faced it all, and I stood tall,And did it my way.

                I'M THROUGH WITH ROMANCE.  I'M THROUGH WITH LOVE.
                                  A7                   D
                I'M THROUGH WITH COUNTING THE STARS ABOVE.
                                 G                 A7
                AND HERE'S THE REASON THAT I'M SO FREE.
                          A7                   D
                MY LOVIN' BABY IS THROUGH WITH ME.
 
                CHORUS
 
RETURN TO SENDER        song by Otis Blackwell & Winfield Scott
 
(t) denotes tacet
[D] I gave a letter to the [Bm] postman,
[Em] he put in his [A7] sack.
[D] Bright and early next [Bm] morning,
he [Em] brought my [A7] letter [D] back.
(t) She wrote upon it.
[G] Return to [A7] sender, [G] address un-[A7] known,
[G] no such [A7] number, [D] no such zone. [D7]
[G] We had a [A7] quarrel, [G] a lovers [A7] spat.
[E7] I write I'm sorry but my letter keeps coming [A7] back.
[D] So then I dropped it in the [Bm] mailbox,
[Em] and sent it Special [A7] D.
[D] Bright and early next [Bm] morning,
it [Em] came right [A7] back to [D] me
(t) She wrote upon it.
[G] Return to [A7] sender, [G] address un-[A7] known,
[G] no such [A7] number, [D] no such zone. [D7]
[G] This time I'm gonna take it myself and put it right in her [D] hand.
And [E7] if it comes back the very next day,
[A7] (t) Then I'll understand the writing on it.
[G] Return to [A7] sender, [G] address un-[A7] known,
[G] no such [A7] number, [D] no such zone. [G] [D]
