Verse 1
Now, (C major) here's to (Gsus4) the
(G major) ladies (C major) now.
Forget about (B flat major) the
Milords.
(C major) This is only for the ladies. (G minor)
(A minor) Chateau
Duhart,
(C major) Milan, 1994. (G minor)
(D minor) Wow, (G minor) (C major) that is an expensive
bottle. (B flat major) (C major) (G minor)
(C major) Here's to the ladies who lunch, (D minor)
every (G major) body (C major) laugh.
(G minor) Lounging in (G major) their caf (C major) tans and planning
a brunch on (G minor) their (E minor) own behalf.
Off (A major) to (D minor) (A minor) the gym, then (D major) to a fading, (A minor)
claiming they're fat (Eaug)
(D major) And (Gsus4) look (D minor) ing grim, (A major) cause they've been (D minor) shading,
choosing (G major) a (D flat major) hat (A flat minor)
(G major) Does (C major) anyone (G minor) in (C major) this (D minor) joint
still wear (C major) a hat? (D minor) (C major)
I drink (B flat major) to that, (G minor) over there (E minor) I see (A minor) a hat,
(C major) a nice hat (B flat major) (G minor)
Here's (C major) to the girls who stay smart,
(G minor) aren't (D minor) they (C major) a gas? (Csus4)
(G minor) Rushing to (C major) their classes in optical art,
(G major) wishing it would (Asus4) pass. (E minor) (A major)
Another (A minor) long exhausting day,
another thousand dollars,
(D major) A (Gsus4) mat (D minor) inee, a print, a (A major) play, (D minor) perhaps a piece of my (Baug) life,
(C major) (B flat major) (G minor) drink (D minor) to (C major) that, (D minor) (B flat major) (G minor) and
one for
Mama, (C major) an (B flat major) (G minor) d one for me. (C major)
(Csus4) (B flat major) (G minor)
(G major) Here's (C major) to the girls who (B flat major) play wife,
(G minor) aren't they too much? (C major)
Keep (G minor) ing house but (C major) clutching a copy
(D minor) of life (G minor) just to (G major) keep him (A major) down
The ones (D major) who fol (A major) low the (E minor) rules (A major) and
meet themselves at (E minor) the schools
Too (A major) busy to know that their
foods are at their (A flat major) jam
I (E flat major) (E flat minor) drink (A flatsus4) (E flat major) to them
Let's (A flatsus4) all drink to (D flatsus4)
(A flat minor) That's (A flatdim) (D flat major) all,
that's (D minor) all a drink to them (A major) (D minor) (C major) (D minor) (B flat major) (Csus4)
(B flat major) And one (C major) for me (Csus4) (G minor) (Csus4)
(C major) Yes to the girls who (B flat major) just watch (Csus4)
(B flat major) Aren't (G minor) they (C major) the best? (Csus4)
(G minor) When they get depressed
(C major) It's a bottle of (B flat major) scotch
Plus (D minor) a (A major) little (Asus4) jest (E minor) (A major)
Another (A minor) chance to disapprove
Another brilliant tinker (C major)
An (F major) other (D minor) reason not (G major) (D minor) to move
Another vodka (F major) shinger (Fdim) (G major) (Baug) (C major)
(B flat major) I (G minor) (G major) (E minor) drink (C major) to that
(Csus4) Let's (C major) all (G major) drink to (C major)
(Csus4) Let's (C major) (G major) all drink to (C major) that (D minor) (C major) (D minor)
(B flat major) (C major) (D minor) (G minor) (D minor) (B flat major) (D minor)
(B flat major) (C major) (D minor) (C major) (B flat major)
(C major) (B flat major) (C major) (D minor) (B flat major)
(C major) (Csus4) (C major) (G minor) (B flat major)
(D minor) Here's (C major) to the girls on the (G minor) go,
(B flat major) (G minor) everybody (D minor) tries (C major) (Csus4)
(B flat major) Looking (G minor) through their eye (C major) s and
you'll see what (Csus4) they know
Everybody (G minor) (Asus4) dies (E minor) (A major)
Toast (D minor) to that (A minor) invincible punch
(Eaug) The (A minor) (A major) dinosaur (C major) surviving the crunch
Now (G major) here's to (D minor) the
ladies who lunch
Everybody rise (C major)
Every (G minor) (G major) body (E minor) rise (C major)
Everybody (G minor) rise (C major)
Every (G minor) body die (E minor) (G minor) (C major)
(Baug) (C minor)
(Baug) (B flatsus4) (E flat major) (A flat major) (Baug)
Every (E flat major) body rise,
it's yours my friend.
Let's talk about the moon over the
Café
Carlisle.
The moon always had been a symbol and a
theme to so many writers and composers.
A theme of love and romance.
Also a theme of craziness, addiction,
and all of that.
So many songs
have been written about the moon.
Ah, which ones did I choose?
The moon dance,
Ren
Morrison.
Moon over
Bourbon
Street,
Sting.
The grapefruit moon,
Tom
Waits.
The moon at the window,
Joni
Mitchell, and all those lovely,
sarcastic moons written
by
Bertolt
Brecht and
Kurt
Weill.
You know, the moon, after all,
is involved.
Right now he thinks he's in
Spain, in the city right there in the north,
and he sees
this new museum built
somewhere in the last century.
It's not so new anymore.
Lots of aluminum, lots of reflection.
Ooh, the moon is slightly confused to
see his brother right down there in this little
Spanish city.
That looks like me.
So he looks through
the glass roof of the
Palhaus in that city
and he sees the old pianist
Joe playing in that pub.
Joe is so old, he's older than the moon,
he's already in his next life
and he knows all those
beautiful melodies about the moon.
Ach,
Joe, play me one more time the
song from those old, old, old days.
