Maybe

(Bb)Maybe far (Ebmaj7)away, (Eb6)or (Bb)maybe real (Bbmaj7)(Ebmaj7)nearby,

(Bb)he (D7)may be (Gm7)pouring her (C7)coffee,

(Cm7)she may be (F7)straight'ning his (Bb)tie.

Maybe in a (Ebmaj7)house (Eb6)all (Bb)hidden by (Bbmaj7)a (Ebmaj7)hill,

(Bb)she's (D7)sitting (Gm7)playing (C7)pianah, (Cm7)she may be (F7)straight'ning his (Bb)tie.

(Ab)he's sitting paying a (Db6/9)bill.

(A)Betcha they're young, (E7sus)betcha they're smart,

(F#m)bet they collect things like (C#7sus)ashtrays and art.

(A)Betcha they're good, why (C#7sus)shouldn't they (F#m)be,

their one mistake (F#m7)was (F7)giving up me.

So, (Bb)maybe now it's (Ebmaj7)time, (Eb6)and (Bb)maybe when (Bbmaj7)I (Ebmaj7)wake (Bb)they'll (D7)be there (Gm7)calling me (C7)"Baby,"

(Cm7)(Bb)maybe. (E7)(A)Betcha he reads, (E7sus)betcha she sews,

(F#m)maybe she's made me a (C#7sus)closet of clothes.

(A)Maybe they're strict, as (C#7sus)straight as a line.

(F#m)Don't really care (F#m7)as (F7)long as they're mine.

So, (Bb)maybe now this (Ebmaj7)prayer's (Eb6)the (Bb)last one of (Bbmaj7)its (Ebmaj7)kind:

(Bb)Won't (D7)you please (Gm7)come get your (C7)baby,

(Cm7)(Bb)maybe. (E7)(Cm7)(Bb)maybe.
