From "Showboat" Music/Lyrics: Rogers and Hammerstein
6 7 5 6 6 6 -5 5 6 6
I used to dream that I would discover
5 -6 5 6 6 -8 7
The perfect lover someday.
8 -8 7 -7 -6 -7 -7 -8 -6-6
I knew I'd recognize him if ever
7 6 6 -7 5
He came 'round my way.
6 6 -7 -7 -6 -7 -8 -8
I always used to fancy then
8 7 -7 -7 -7 -6 -7 6 -6 6
He'd be one of the god-like kind of men,
5 -5 6 -7 -7 -6 -7 6 5 5
With a giant brain and a noble head,
6 -6 -7 -8 -8
Like the heroes bold
7 7 -7 6 6
In the books I've read.
6 6 8 6 -6 8 -8 8 -8 8 -8
But along came Bill, who's not the type at all.
6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -7 -6 -7 6 -6 6
You'd meet him on the street and never notice him.
-6 -5 5 -4 -7 6 -5 5
His form, his face, his manly grace
6 7 -8 8 8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 7 -7
Are not the kind that you would find in a statue.
-6 6 8 6 -6
And I can't explain--
8 -8 8 -8 8 -8 6 7 5 -6
It's surely not his brain that makes me thrill.
-6 7 -4 -5 -6 7 8 6 -6
I love him because, he's wonderful
6 -6 7 -8 8 7
Because he's just my Bill.
He can't play golf or tennis or polo,
Or sing a solo, or row.
He isn't half as handsome
As dozens of men I know.
He isn't tall or straight or slim,
And he dresses far worse than Ted or Jim.
And I can't explain whey he should be
Just the one, one, man in the world for me.
He's just my Bill, and ordinary guy.
He hasn't got a thing that I can brag about
And yet to be, upon his knee,
So comfy and roomy
Seems natural to me.
And I can't explain--
It's surely not his brain
That makes me thrill.
I love him because, he's--I don't know--
Because he's just my Bill.
