Fdim Em         C7    B7 Bb7  A7        D 
They say into your early   life romance came 
  A7       D7  C#7  C7    B7       E7  
And in this heart of yours burned a flame 
        A6    A   A6   A   A7  D   Cdim  A7 
A flame that flick-ered one day and died away 
Em           C7 B7 Bb7   A7       D 
Then, with disillusion deep in your eyes 
 A7          D7  C#7   C7   B7      E7 
You learned that fools in love soon grow wise 
           A6   A   A6   A    A7 D      F#m  G#   
The years have changed you somehow I see you now 
Bridge 
C#7     Bbm 
Smoking and drinking  
F#     G#7        C#7 Fdim   F#    F#m  G# 
Never thinking of tomorrow, nonchalant 
C#7     Bbm 
Diamonds shining 
Gdim     G#7         C# Fdim  F#m 
Dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant 
  A7          G7 
Is that all you really want 
Em    C7   B7  Bb7 A7         
No, Sophistcated Lady 
  D  A7          D7  C#7  C7   B7     E7 
I know  you miss the love you lost long ago 
      A7/13-  A7        D 
And when nobody is nigh, you cry 
  Em7    G/B  D7M 
You cry, you cry
