Intro: D7M A4/7 A7 D7M 

D      Bm5-/7    G       A7   D    Cdim     G/B   G  D 
I get along without you very well,     of course I do 
  G    G/F#  Em7        A7       Em7        G          A7 
Except when soft rains fall and drip from leaves, then I recall 
    G         G/F#   Em7      A7       D9  Cdim    Bm5-/7    A7 
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms,     of course I do 
      G             E7       A7   D 
But I get along without you very well 
D          Bm5-/7      G         A7      D    Cdim  G/B    G  D 
I've for - got - ten you, just like I should,   of course I have 
  G       G/F#     Em7        A7       Em7        G       A7 
Except to hear your name, or someone's laugh that is the same 
     G      G/F#    E7       A7  G    D 
But I've forgotten you just like I should 
D7      G  Gm7        D      Bm7 
What a guy!    What a fool am I  
    Em7              Gm7         A7       D  
To think my breaking heart could kid the moon 
D7         G    Gm7          F#7         Bm7 
What's in store?   Should I 'phone once more 
          Em7          E7         Em7   G/B A7 
No, it's best that I stick to my tune 
D      Bm5-/7    G       A7   D    Cdim     G/B   G  D 
I get along without you very well,     of course I do 
G         G/F#      Em7  A7    Em7       G    G/B       A7 
Except perhaps in spring   but I should never think of spring 
    G          G/F#    E7       A7    G   D 
For that would surely break my heart in two
