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

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
