^Dm7 Lovely ^F/G ladies in these ^Cmaj9 lazy days
And though I ^Am7 never ^Cmaj9 took a ^D7 wife

Cmaj9 Am7, Am7 Em7 F
Of the people in my past
^Dm7 Fading fac- ^F/G es in a ^Cmaj9 waking dream
And though they ^Am7 never ^Cmaj9 seemed to la ^D7 st very lo ^G ng
There are ^Dm7 faces ^Fmaj7 I remem- ^Em7 ber
>From the ^F places ^F/G in my ^Cmaj9 past

And the ^Dm7 insincere smiles ^G
Em7 Sometimes I can l ^Am7 augh and ^Em7 cry and I can' ^F t remem ^Dm7 ber wh ^F/G y ^G
But ^Am I s ^Em7 till l ^F ove t ^F/G hose
Cmaj9 Am7, Am7 Em7 F
