Debonair lullabies
Bbsus2Bbsus2 C majorC
In melodies revealed
C majorC Bb majorBb
In deep despair on lonely nights
Bbsus2Bbsus2 C majorC
He knows just how you feel
C majorC Bb majorBb
The slyest rhymes, the sharpest suits
Bbsus2Bbsus2 C majorC
In miracles made real
A minorAm Bb majorBb
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
A minorAm Bb majorBb FF Bb majorBb C majorC
You know you're right just to hold her tight
A minorAm Bb majorBb
He soothes it right, makes it out of sight
FF
And everything's good in the world tonight
C majorC Bb majorBb FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
When Smokey sings, I hear violins
C majorC Bb majorBb FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
When Smokey sings, I forget everything
C majorC
As she's packing her things
Bb majorBb
As she's spreading her wings
C majorC
The front door might slam
Bb majorBb
But the back door it rings
C majorC Bb majorBb FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
And Smokey sings, he sings
C majorC Bb majorBb
Elegance in eloquence
Bbsus2Bbsus2 C majorC
For sale or rent or hire
C majorC Bb majorBb
Should I say yes and match his best
Bsus2Bsus2 C majorC
Then I would be a liar
C majorC Bb majorBb
Symphonies that soothe the rage
Bbsus2Bbsus2 C majorC
When lovers' hearts catch fire
A minorAm Bb majorBb
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
A minorAm Bb majorBb FF Bb majorBb C majorC
You know you're right just to hold her tight
A minorAm Bb majorBb
He soothes it right, makes it out of sight
FF
And everything's good in the world tonight
C majorC Bb majorBb FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
When Smokey sings, I hear violins
C majorC Bb majorBb FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
When Smokey sings, I forget everything

As she's packing her things

Smashing the hell
Bb majorBb
With the heaven she brings
C majorC Bb majorBb FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
Then Smokey sings, he sings

Would it be true to say
C majorC Bbsus2Bbsus2
Luther croons
Bb majorBb C majorC
Sly's the original originator
C majorC Bb majorBb
James screams

But nothing can compare, Nothing can compare
