Lyrics
They're writing (F)songs of love, but not for (Fmaj7)me.
A lucky (G7)star's above, but not for (F7)me.
With love to (Bbdim)lead (Bb)the (Gm7)way I've found more (Fdim)clouds (F)of (Dm)gray than any (Gm7)Russian play could (Db7)(C7)guarantee.
I was a (F)fool (Dm7)to fall and get that (Fmaj7)way;
heighho! (G7)Alas!
And also, lucky (F7)day!
Although I (Bbdim)can't (Bb)(Gm7)dismiss the mem'ry (Fdim)of (F)his (Am7)kiss,
I (D7)guess he's (Gm7)not (C7)for (F)me.
He's knocking (F)on a door, but not for (Fmaj7)me.
He'll plan a (G7)two by four,
but not for (F7)me.
I know that (Bbdim)love's (Bb)a (Gm7)game;
I'm puzzled, (Fdim)just (F)the (Dm)same.
Was I the (Gm7)moth or flame?
I'm all at (Db7)(C7)sea.
It all (F)began (Dm7)so well, but what an (Fmaj7)end!
This is the (G7)time a feller needs a (F7)friend.
When ev'ry (Bbdim)(Bb)happy (Gm7)plot ends with a (Fdim)(F)marriage (Am7)knot,
and (D7)there's no (Gm7)knot (C7)for (F)me.
He's knocking (F)me.
