Verse 1
F#m
Joe Stein and Jerry Bach and I had worked with
F#m
Gm
and especially his singing.

G
And even though he had politic
which could have made it very sticky to work together,
he wanted Zero,

ated with the House Un -American Activities Committee
nevertheless he felt that Robbins
F#m
was the right person

G
F
Zero invari ably gave in to Robbins' taste.
