But Not For Me(Chords)

	        

     E7     A       D     Dm7     A 
They're writing songs of love, but not for me; 
 B7        E7        D     A 
A lucky star's above, but not for me. 
   A7     D   Bm7 Bm5-/7         Cdim    F#m 
With love to lead the way, I've found more clouds of gray 
 F#m7  A       Bm7     Bm5-/7  E7 Bm5-/7 E7 
Than any Russian play could guarantee. 
      A       D       Dm7      A 
I was a fool to fall and get that way; 
      B7      E7       A         
Heigh-ho! Alas! And also lack-a-day! 
  A7     D     Cdim       A       B7 
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss, 
        Bm5-/7 E7  A 
I guess she's not  for me. 
 E7       A    D     Dm7     A 
She's knocking on a door, but not for me; 
              B7     E7         D       A 
She'll plan a two by four, but not for me. 
    A7     D   Bm7 Bm5-/7        Cdim     A     F#m 
I know that love's a  game; I'm puzzled, just the same 
F#m7    A          Bm7     Bm5-/7   E7 
Was I a moth or flame? I'm all at sea. 
       A     D       Dm7     A 
It all began so well   but what an end! 
        B7      E7         A 
This is the time a fellow needs a friend. 
 A7     D    Cdim         A       B7 
When ev'ry happy plot ends with a marriage knot 
      Bm5-/7     E7     A 
And there's no knot for me.
