A      F#m    D9  E7      Dm6              
Once I was a sentimental thing  
       A       F#m    D9  E7     A7M 
Threw my heart away each spring 
     Fdim            AM7  Cdim  Bm5-/7   A7M    
Now a spring romance hasn't got a chance   
           D9      Bm5-/7      A7M C#m5-/7  F#m7 
 Promised my first dance  to    winter  
D9      Bm5-/7    E7    A   B7     D9  D6 Dm6  Fdim   E7    
All I've got to show's a splinter for my    little fling 
D9    D  E7/13  Bbm9   E7 Fdim A7M 
Spring  this  year  has  got  me  feeling 
 A7M               D9  Bm5-/7     A7M C#m5-/7  
Like a horse that never left the post                 
D7M       D6             Dm7+        Dm6 
I lie in my room, staring up at the ceiling 
D9        Bm5-/7   E      Bm5-/7    A7M       
Spring can really hang you up the most.  
       A       Bm7         C#m7    D 
Morning's kiss wakes trees and flowers 
A7M             D9     Bm5-/7    A7M   C#m5-/7  
And to them I'd like to drink a toast                 
D7M         D6           A       C#m5-/7 B7 
But I walk in the park just to kill the lonely hours 
D9        Bm5-/7   E      Bm5-/7    A7M       
Spring can really hang you up the mos.  
   Gdim      A        Gdim  G        A 
All afternoon the birds twitter-twitt 
     Gdim        A               Gdim   G       A           
I know the tune  'This Is Love, This Is It.'  
        Am7   G     A         Am7     G         A 
Heard it before, and don't I know the score 
      E        C#m5-/7        A          B7        
And I've decided that spring is a bore  
      E           A9    A7M           D9 
Love seems sure around the new year 
A7M     C#m5-/7  D9  Bm5-/7 A7M C#m5-/7  
Now it's April, love is just a ghost             
      C#7      D7M      D6   Dm6    A     C#m5-/7   B7 
Spring arrived on time, only what became of you, dear 
D9        Bm5-/7   E     Bm5-/7   C#m5-/7 F#7 D9          
Spring can really hang you up the most           
            Bm5-/7   E      Bm5-/7    A7M 
Spring can really hang you up the most 
Gdim          A      Gdim   G         A                        
Love came my way, I thought it would last  
       Gdim        A           Gdim G       A 
We had our day, now it's all in the past 
     Am7     G     A      Am7    G      A          
Spring came along, a season of song  
        E          C#m5-/7         A              B7 
Full of sweet promise, but something went wrong 
E       A9       A7M       D9               
Doctors once prescribed a tonic  
     A7M   C#m5-/7  D9    Bm5-/7    A7M   C#m5-/7 
Sulfur and  molasses was the dose 
C#7    D7M      D6   Dm6    D              B7                 
Didn't help one bit  my condition must be chronic   
D9       Bm5-/7   E    Bm5-/7  C#m5-/7  F#7 
Spring can really hang you up the most 
 D9   A7M       D9      A7M   
All alone, the party is over   
D9       Dm6   A7M   C#m5-/7    B7 
Old man winter was a gracious host 
Cdim     D7M      Dm6    A    C#7              F#7                 
But when you keep praying for snow to hide the clover  
  D9    D  E7/13  Bbm9   E7 Fdim A7M 
Spring can really hang you up the most
