Lyrics

I have an ear for music,

(D#7)and (D7)I have an eye for a (G)maid.

I hear a pretty girlie, (D#7)with (D7)each pretty tune that's (G)played.

(C)They go (Cdim)together, (G)like sunny (Dm)(E7)weather (A7)goes with the (Em)month (A7)of (Am7)May.

(G)I've studied girls and music, (D#7)so (D7)I'm qualified to (G)say:

(C9)A (B7)(Bb7)pretty (A7)girl is (C#maj7)like (A7)a (Bm)(D7)melody that (G)haunts you (Gm)night (G)and day,

(G7)Just like the (C)strain of a (Cm)haunting (Gmaj7)refrain,

(Caug)she'll (A7)start upon (Em7)a (A7)marathon and (D7)run (C)around your (D9)brain.

(C9)You (B7)can't (Bb7)(A7)escape she's (C#maj7)in (A7)your (Bm)(D7)memory.

By (G)morning, (G9)night (G7)and (C)noon

She will (F#7)leave you and (B9)then (E7)come back (Am)again.

A pretty (F7)girl is (D7)just like a pretty (G)tune.

A (B7)(Bb7)pretty (A7)girl is (C#maj7)like (A7)a (Bm)(D7)melody that (G)haunts you (Gm)night (G)and day,

(G7)Just like the (C)strain of a (Cm)haunting (Gmaj7)refrain,

(Caug)she'll (A7)start upon (Em7)a (A7)marathon and (D7)run (C)around your (D9)brain.

(C9)You (B7)can't (Bb7)(A7)escape she's (C#maj7)in (A7)your (Bm)(D7)memory.

By (G)morning, (G9)night (G7)and (C)noon

She will (F#7)leave you and (B9)then (E7)come back (Am)again.

A pretty (F7)girl is (D7)just like a pretty (G)tune.

A (B7)(Bb7)pretty (G)tune.
