Intro:
E7


Am                           F9
I've had much good luck as a performer

Am                               C/D   D9
I've been cast in almost every show

     F7           C/E    Dm7            C7
From Carousel to Hair on Broadway I was there

           Bm7        Esus4  E7
But you'd never never know


    Am                                  F9
Perhaps you picked me out last year in Phantom

    Am                          C6/D  D9
Or underneath my dirt in miser - a - ble
F7               C/E              Dm7            C7
But if you tried to pick me out from all the voices in the crowd

     Bm7                             Esus4    E7
I am certain that you must have had a probl - eh


   A7sus            A7         A7/D                Dm/F
My plight is quite familiar to those who tread the boards

       Em7
At the Neberlander

A7sus   A7   A7/D   Dm
Schubert or Rialto


              F            F#dim7
Although I've got a great high C

     C/G              A9
The reaction seems to be

C/D
"ooh that's great dear...

        D9               F/G
But we need you to sing alto"


G7
Please...

C6                       Dm7 G7
Give me a chance to sing melody

C6               Bb7   A7   G/B Cm
Give me a crack at the tune

A7/C# Am/F#             Fm6     C6/E       A7
  I'm filled with chagrin every time I begin

       D9          F/G G7 Cadd2 E7
By the light of the silvery moon


    Amadd2       Am         F9      Amadd2    Am         C/D  D9
Just one little shot at the melody give me a moment to shine

  Am/F# Fm6 C/E Ab7/Eb Dm7         F/G G7 C    Gm7
I'm sick of can't help lovin' that man of mine


C7     Fadd2    F#dim7       C6/G   Bb/C
  Just look at Oklahoma for example

C7     Fadd2    F#dim7       C6/G   Bb/C
  That rousing title number of the show
     Fadd2       F#dim7
While everyone is singing

      C6/G  Am7
Okla - ho - ma

      Dm7 G7 C6
I get skyyyyyyy 'yo oh'

Ab Ebm/Ab Ab7


    Db        Dbadd9        Db       Dbdim7
The hills are alive with the sound of music

D


D          A7/D                    D
Three little maids from school are we

A7/D                          D
Pert as a school girl well can be

         A7/D                D Bm7    E7sus4       E7          A
Filled to the brim with girlish glee; three little maids from school.

F-G-A-Bb-C
F-G-A-Bb-C

Touch me it's so easy to leave me

F C7 C F


C7           F
What mirror where?

C                  Em/B B7  Em  D7    G9
   Which what where who who who who?

G9            G7
Such a pretty me

Ab9            Ab7
   such a pretty me!

 Ab
Please!

Db9        Db6            Ebm7  Ab7
Pull a few strings for the melody

    Db9          Db6  Cb7 Bb7 Ab/C Dbm
Don't care if the solo is teeny

Bb/D  Gm7     Gbm          Fm7          Bb7
   It would be Nirvana from heaven such manna

  Eb9            Gb/Ab Ab7
To sing something other than

Dbm
Sweeney


Ab7 Db9       Db6           Ebm7 Ab7
I'm down on my knees for the melody

   Db9            Db6 Db/C Bbm    A7
I'm begging with all of my might:

    Db/Ab   Eb/Ab  Db/Ab    Db Ab/C  Bbm
Just half a bar and let this chorus girl

     Fm Ebm7add4
Be a star

Ab7 Db7
Tonight!

Ab7 Db
