Standard (EADGBE)

I'll tell you a story

About a girl who came my way

We upped and married

Three kids, a dog in Sante Fe

Now she's gone I'm by myself

I'm gonna join

sentimental institution

I'm gonna pack

Pack all my little old blues away

But I didn't stay left on the shelf

Mrs. Johnson from Wisconsin

She's a widow, plain to see

And Minnesota from Dakota

Likes the way I make her tea

[no chord]

Sweet as candy

I'm gonna join

sentimental institution

No-one to stop me

From playing Benny Goodman all day

So if you want romance

Just step my way

The band starts to play

I can thrill her

With Glenn Miller

Or a song from

Louis Armstrong

With Jim Dorsey

Or Arty Shaw, we

Know this magic can't go wrong

[no chord]

Old and lovely

She's so wealthy

But so ugly

I've gone crazy

Someone help me do
