I'll tell you a [Eb]story
A[Ab7]bout a girl who came my [Eb]way [Eb]
We upped and [Ab]married
Three [Ab7]kids, a dog in Sante [Eb]Fe [Eb]
[Ab]Now she's gone I'm by my[Ab7]self
I'm gonna [Eb]join
A [Ab7]sentimental insti[Eb]tution [Eb]
I'm gonna [Ab]pack
Pack all my [Ab7] little old blues a[Eb]way [Eb]
But [Ab]I didn't stay [Ab7]left on the shelf [Ab7]
[Cm] Mrs. Johnson [Gm]from Wisconsin
[Cm] She's a widow, [Gm]plain to see
And [Cm] Minnesota [Gm]from Dakota
[Cm] Likes the way I [Gm]make her tea
[no chord]
Sweet as candy
[Ab7]
I'm gonna [Eb]join
A [Ab7]sentimental insti[Eb]tution [Eb]
No-one to [Ab]stop me
From [Ab7]playing Benny Goodman all [Eb]day [Eb]
So if you [Ab]want romance
[Ab7]Just step my way
The [Ab7]band starts to play
[Cm] I can thrill her
[Gm]With Glenn Miller
[Cm] Or a song from
[Gm]Louis Armstrong
[Cm] With Jim Dorsey
[Gm]Or Arty Shaw, we
[Cm] Know this magic [Gm]can't go wrong
[no chord]
Old and lovely
She's so wealthy
But so ugly
I've gone crazy
Someone help me [Eb]do
