Verse:
FF       Bb7Bb7
My lean baby, tall and thin
FF     G7G7   Dm7Dm7     C7C7
Five feet seven, of bones and skin
FF            Bb7Bb7       BdimBdim
But when she tells me  maybe she loves me
FF                  F#m7b5F#m7b5
I feel as mellow as a fellow can be

FF        Bb7Bb7
She's so skinny, she's so drawn

When she stands sideways, you would think that she's gone
FF               Bb7Bb7
But when she calls me, "Baby", I feel fine
FF                        Gm7b5Gm7b5
To think she's frantically, romantically mine

FF   G6G6         C6C6
And  every night, when I hold her tight

The feeling is nice, my arms can go around twice

Verse:
FF       Bb7Bb7
My lean baby, she's so slim
FF           G7G7
A augmentedA broomstick's wider, but not as trim
FF               Bb7Bb7
And when she starts to kiss me, then I know

 love her so, I'll never, ever, let her go  No!

Bridge:
G+G       C7C7       GbdimGbdim
My lean baby, strange to see
G6G6          Am7Am7
And all that nothing, it belongs to me

Dm7Dm7 G6G6              Dbm7b5Dbm7b5

Dm7Dm7 G7G7        C6C6
Then a diamond ring, I bought her

Hey, the diamonds shine, the ring is so fine

But here is the twist, she wears it right on her wrist
