The Man I Love


Someday, he'll come along,   the man I love
 -5* 6*   -5*   6* -5* -6*   -5*  6* -5* -6*

And he'll be big and strong,  the man I love
-5*  6*   -5* 6* -5*  -6*      5* -5* 5*  6*

And when he comes my way
 5*  -5* 5*  -5*  5*  6

I'll do my best to make him stay
 5   5* 5   -5*  5*  5   5   5


He'll look at me and smile,  I'll understand
 -5*   6* -5* 6* -5*  -6*    -5*  6* -5* -6*

And in  a  little while,  he'll take my hand
-5* 6* -5* 6* -5*  -6*      5*  -5*  5*  6*

And though it seems absurd
 5*  -5*   5*  -5*   5* 6

I know we both won't say a word
5  -5*  5  -5*  5*    3* 3* 3*


Maybe  I shall meet him Sunday
3* -3* 5   5    5    7*  7* 7

Maybe Monday,  maybe not
 7* 7  7 -6    -3* 5  6

Still, I'm sure to meet him one day
  3*   -3*   5   5    5    7*  7* 7

Maybe Tuesday will be my good-news day
 7* 7  7 -6   -5*  5  5* -3*   4    4


He'll build a little home,  just meant for two
 -5*    6* -5* 6* -5* -6*    -5*   6*  -5* -6*

From which I'll never roam,  who would, would you?
 -5*   6*  -5*  6* -5* -6*    5*  -5*     5*   6*

And so all else above
 5* -5* 5*  -5*  5* 6

I'm waiting for the man I love
 5  -5* -6*  7* -7*  7* 7* 7*
