CHEERFUL LITTLE EARFUL	       ELLA FITZGERALD

(FROM SWEET AND LOW)


KEY Eb

 6    5   4  -5b -4  4  5  4    4   -4    4
I’m grow-ing tir-ed of lov-ey dove theme songs

 6    5   4 -5b  -4   4   4   4
That fif-ty mil-lion pia-nos pound

-6   6  5  -6b -5b   -4   6   5  4  -5b    4
And in an age where these Ra-di-os scream songs

-6 6  5  -6b  -5b   5   -4  5   -4
I on-ly want one phrase a-round me


CHORUS

  6     6  -6b  -6b  4   4   4  4
There's a cheer-ful lit-tle ear-ful

 6   6  -6b -6b  4    4     4   4
Gosh I miss it some-thing fear-ful

 4    4    4    4   -6 -6b  6  -5b
And this cheer-ful lit-tle ear-ful

 5 -4   6     6    4   4   4
Is the well known "I love you."

  6     6  -6b -6b   4    4    4    4
Stocks can go down, bus'-ness slow down

 6   6   -6b -6b  4  4   4    4
But the milk and hon-ey flow down

 4   4   4    4   -6  -6b 6  -5b
With a cheer-ful lit-tle ear-ful

 5  -4  6     6    4   4   4
Of the well known "I love you."

4  -5b -4  -5b  5   6   5  -4
In ev'-ry play it's a set phrase

-5b  -5b  5   6   5   -4
What the pub-lic get phrase

6  -5b -6b -5b 5    -6b -6b -6 6  6
But as a pet phrase it'-ll do do do

 6   6 -6b -6b
Poo-pa-roo-it

  4   4   4  4
Soft and cu-it

 6    6  -6b -6b 4   4   4  4
Make me hap-py, you can do it.

 6   6  -6    -6  -6b -6b 6  -5b
With a cheer-ful lit-tle ear-ful

5   -4  6     6    4   4   4
Of the well known "I love you."

ENJOY!!
