E MajorE                   E MajorE
Peter and Lou would skate
E MajorE                  EbmEbm    Ab7Ab7
On winter's frozen lake
A augmentedA                         AbmAbm
Circling around all their friends
A augmentedA                      F#m7F#m7    BB
Laughing wherever they went.

E MajorE                    E MajorE
They're catching the mornin' plane
    E MajorE                   EbmEbm    Ab7Ab7
And sendin' the rest by train,
A augmentedA                           AbmAbm
Hangin' their skates on the wall
A augmentedA                            AbmAbm
Takin' their turn and that's all
     F# minorF#m       Am6Am6      E MajorE       F#F#           A augmentedA            B7B7
With brushes & canvas & macrome handcrafts & Bessie Smith singin' the
E7E7
blues...
A augmentedA                    AbmAbm
A augmentedA chorus for Peter & Lou.

E MajorE                E MajorE
Now loneliness has a way
   E MajorE                  EbmEbm    Ab7Ab7
Of hangin' around all day
    A augmentedA                     AbmAbm
I'm standing alone on the ice
    A augmentedA            C# minorC#m   F#m7F#m7          BB
I'm wonderin' if maybe they've been right

E MajorE                         E MajorE
So I'll catch the mornin' plane
E MajorE                    EbmEbm     Ab7Ab7
Send all the rest by train
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA            AbmAbm
Leavin' the ice there to thaw
    A augmentedA                         AbmAbm
I'm takin' my turn and that's all.
     F# minorF#m         Am6Am6       E MajorE              F#F#        A augmentedA
And if I should miss them, I'll go back & listen to Bessie Smith
B7B7          E7E7
singin' the blues
A augmentedA                      AbmAbm
In a chorus for Peter & Lou

F# minorF#m         Am6Am6       E MajorE              F#F#        A augmentedA
Oh, if I should miss them, I'll go back & listen to Bessie Smith
B7B7          E7E7
singin' the blues
A augmentedA                      AbmAbm
In a chorus for Peter & Lou
