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

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
