I could have told you
      Dbm6      Gb9
She’d hurt you
      Fm7
She’d love you a while
       Bdim
Then desert you
   Bbm7       
If only you’d asked
Eb7sus4      Eb7      Ab   Bb7/Ab  Ab
I could have told you so
             Bb7
I could have saved you

Some crying

September of my Years

A                        
 One day you turn around, 
F/a
 and it's summer
A                          
 Next day you turn around, 
Bm7-5/a
 and it's fall
A                        
 And the springs
         E/g#  
 and the winters of a life time
F#m7      B7               Bm9    E9
 Whatever happened to them all
   Bm9           E9

Polka Dots and Moonbeams

Eb         Cm7             Fm7       Bb7   Bb6/9 
 A country dance was being held in a garden 
Eb        Cm7                Fm7          G7     /b
 I felt a bump and heard an "Oh, beg your pardon" 
Cm7          B+ Eb/bb          Gm7    F#m7 
Suddenly I saw  polka dots and moonbeams 
Fm7          Bb6/9       Eb  Bb7
All around a pugnosed dream 
Eb         Cm7             Fm7      Bb7      Bb6/9 
 The music started and was I the perplexed one 
Eb         Cm7              Fm7            G7     /b
