Verse 1
Till (D major) a few years ago
My one (G major) claim to (C major) fame
Was the fact (D major) that my name
rhymed with Sanka (E flatdim)
(D major) But (A major) after (D major) thinking it through
I (G major) said this won't (C major) do
So I'll make (D major) something of the name Anka.
I thought about all different
kinds of careers.
(C sharp minor) I (A flatdim) wor ried until I (A flat minor) was green
Now, (C sharp major) (F sharp minor) by then,
(B major) I was getting (E flatdim) along in my years. (F sharp minor)
(A major) True. (E minor) I (E major) must have been (D major) pushing 16. (A major)
But (D major) I'm happy to say, one (G major) wonderful day, (C major)
I was fiddling (E minor) around (D major) my (G major) piano.
(D major) That was (A major) (D minor) (D major) my lucky day.
Lady Luck (G major) smiled (D major) my (B minor) way. (A flatdim) (E major) (G major)
But (D minor) (D major) the (F sharp minor) lady's real
(Cdim) name was Diana. (B major) (E minor)
(A major) I'm (D major) so young and you're (B minor) so old.
(G major) This, my darling, I've (A major) been told.
I (D major) don't care just what (B minor) they say,
(E major) cause forever (G major) (E major) I (A major) will pray
You (D major) and I will be (B minor) as free
as (G major) the birds (E minor) up (A major) in the trees
Oh, (D major) please (B minor) stay (G major) by me, (A major)
Diana (D major) (B minor) (E minor)
(A major) What (D major) a feeling to (B minor) be told
A (G major) million Dianas had (A major) just been sold
What (D major) a thrill, (B minor) the day it made
Number (G major) one on (E minor) the (A major) hit parade
(D major) Oh, please (B minor) stay (G major) by me, (A major)
Diana (D major) (B flat major) (D major)
Thank you. (D minor)
I sure (D major) (G major) can thank (E minor) my lucky
stars above (D minor) (G major)
Because (B major) I (G major) love (E minor) what I'm (D minor) doing
And I'm (B major) doing (G sharp major) (G sharp minor) what (B major) I (E major) love
Well, (C sharp minor) I'm a (A major) do -it -yourself
type (B major) song (F sharp minor) (B major) man
I'm a (A major) do -it -your (G sharp major) self type (G sharp minor) (F sharp minor) guy
I (B major) confess (D sharpdim) that I'm (G sharp major) having
myself a (C sharp minor) time
Singing my own music (F sharp major) and rhyme (F sharp minor)
(B major) Well, I'm a (A major) think -for
-yourself (G sharp minor) type (F sharp minor) song (A major) man
(B major) I'm a (A major) write -it -your (G sharp minor) self (B major) type guy (E major)
I'm thankful I was (C sharp minor) born with
a (F sharp major) mu sical knack (B major)
I'm (G sharp major) thankful (Cdim) and I'm (C sharp minor) grateful
Cause it's (F sharp major) great to look back (B major)
On (G sharp major) all the songs I (C sharp major) wrote
and then put (F sharp major) down a shellac
(B major) Now if (E major) you could (B major) think (E major) back
Let's say, (G sharpaug) all the way (E major) back to (A major) 1959,
(Asus4) (D minor)
you (E major) just might recol (F sharp minor) lect these (D sharpdim)
(B major) melod (G major) ies of (B major) (F sharp minor) mine. (A major) (B major)
And (A major) by the way, (C sharp minor) once (B major) again
I kind (A major) of got the feel (E major) ing that I was
getting much older,
(C major) romantically (B major) well, very much bolder.
Put your head on (G sharp minor) my (C sharp minor) shoulder (E major)
(F sharp minor) Hold (Cdim) me in your arm (E major) s, baby (C sharp minor)
(F sharp minor) Won't (B major) you squeeze (Cdim) me (E major) once, show (C sharp minor) me
(F sharp minor) That you (Cdim) love me (E major) too
Ooh, put (C sharp minor) (E major) your (B major) lips next to (C sharp minor) mine,
(E major) dear
(F sharp minor) Won't (Cdim) you kiss me once,
(E major) baby (C sharp minor) (F sharp minor)
Just a (Cdim) kiss goodnight, (E major) tell (C sharp minor) me
Tell (F sharp minor) (Cdim) me that you love
me (B major) too (E major) (A major) (B flat major) (B major)
You are my des (E major) tiny (E minor)
(G major) You are (A minor) what you are to me
You're more than life to me
(A major) That's (B major) what (A major) you are (E major) (B major) (B minor) (E major)
I'm just a lonely (A major) boy.
(G major) I'm (A major) lonely an (E major) d blue. (D major)
(E major) I'm all alone. (D major)
(E major) I've got nothing (A major) to do. (G major)
(A major) I've got everything you (G major) (A major) could think (E major) of. (D major)
(E major) But all I want (D major) is (E major) someone
to (G sharp major) love. (A major) (G major) (A major)
But the (D major) lowest (G major) kind of (F sharp minor) feeling
that (E minor) any one could (A major) know
is (G major) when a lonely boy (F sharp minor) seizes one
(E minor) And (G major) on they (A minor) go
(A major) Cos (D major) (G major) when she says (B minor) good (G major) bye (F sharp minor)
(A major) When (F sharp minor) she (E minor) says goodbye
(E major) It's (B minor) time (D major) to (B flat major) cry (G major)
When (C major) somebody (A minor) needs you,
(E minor) that's the time to cry
When (A minor) you know you are (D minor) lonely,
you're (A minor) not
The one and (D minor) only who (G major) will (C major) cry (G major)
Happiness is (C major) what I love
(G major) Loneliness, that's why (C major) I cry
(B major) For (E minor) you have made (A minor) my heart a (D minor) slave
And now it's up to you (C major)
When somebody (A minor) leaves you, (E minor)
that's the time to cry
When (A minor) you know you are (D minor) lonely
You're (A minor) not the one and (D minor) only
Who will cry? (C major) (F major) (C sharp major) (D minor) (C major)
Thank you very much.
But (C major) why should (D minor) I be crying
or feel (C major) blue? (F major)
because I love (B flat major) what I'm doing
just stand (B major) ing (A flat minor) (G major) here
singing (A major) these (B minor) songs (E major) for (B major) you
yes (B major) this (A major) do -it -your (B major) self type song (F sharp minor)
(A major) man (B major) he's a (A major) happy good (A flat major) lucky Joe
(A major) I (B major) con (A flat major) fess I've been lucky
with June an (C sharp minor) d Moon
but it's you who (F sharp major) really have called the tune
(B major) So this (A major) do -it -your (A flat minor) self type song, (A major) man, (B major)
only (A major) hopes that you (A flat major) liked (A flat minor) his (B major) show.
I hope that I can sing for you
five years from today,
(B major) And I'll be in my twenties
with my hair turning gray.
(B major) Though (A flat major) I'll be old and weary,
still I'll cheerfully say,
Thanks for helping (E major) my
career (E minor) get underway.
(A major) Yes, (B major) (C sharp major) (F sharp minor) thanks to you,
hanged (B major) us away (C major) (F sharp minor) (F major) (E major)
(E major) (C sharp minor) (A major)
(B major)
Thank you very much.
