Harbor Lights
Tom: C
C          G7
I saw the harbor lights;
                          Cdim -  C
They only told me we were part - ing,
     C/B      Dm      G7
The same old harbor lights
     Gdim         Dm7 G7 C
That once brought you to me.

C             G7
I watched the harbor lights;
                               Cdim  - C
How could I help if tears were start - ing?
     C/B     Dm      G7
Good-bye to tender nights
  Gdim     Dm7 G7   C     Fdim    C
Beside the sil-ver sea.

Bridge:
             F
I longed to hold you tight
   Fm         Fdim       C     C/B    Am7
And kiss you just once more;
   Am7/G     D7
But you were on the ship,
   Dm7    D7       G7
And I was on the shore. 

C             G7
Now I know lonely nights,
                              Cdim   - C
For all the while my heart is whis'  - pring,
        C/B  Dm      G7
"Some other harbor lights
      Gdim      Dm7   G7  C
Will steal your love from me."

 

If I Didn't Care

E7    Fdim   A6  Cdim  A6            E7  Fdim  A6    Cdim  A6
If I didn't care          more than words can say
     Edim    B7          Gdim Edim  B7    Edim    B7
If I didn't care would I feel this way?
               D        DM7        E7
If this isn't love then why do I thrill?
                   A        A9         F#m
And what makes my head go 'round and 'round
           D9   BbM7  E7
While my heart stands still?
E7   Fdim    A6   Cdim A6         E7 Fdim  A6   Cdim    A6
If I didn't care         would it be the same?
         Edim   B7      Gdim    B7       Edim       B7
Would my ev'ry prayer begin and end with just your name?
                D        DM7      D6      Cdim    A      F#7
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
                    D              E7        A       Edim   E7
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?
Spoken (over verse chords): 
E7   Fdim    A6   Cdim  A6               E7        Fdim      A6 Cdim A6

Darlin'  if this isn't love, then why do I thrill so much?  
                         A         A9          F#m
What is it that makes my head go 'round and 'round

While my heart just stands still so much?
E7  Fdim    A6  Cdim A6           E7 Fdim A6   Cdim    A6

And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
                   D                E7       A     (  Edim     E7  )
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?
Red Sails In The Sunset
Tom: D
D   DM7            D7   G       Gm7         D  Cdim  A
Red sails in the sunset,    way out on the sea,
     Bm7-5     A       Em7 A       Em7        D  E7-5  A7
Oh, carry my loved one        home safely to me.
D   DM7            D7      G     Gm7             D  Cdim  A
She sailed at the dawning,   all day I've been blue;
      Bm7-5       A    Em7 A7      Em7         D   Gdim  D
Red sails in the sunset,      I'm trusting in you.
Bridge:
G      G/F#            D
Swift wings you must borrow;
A7    A7sus4  A7        D   DM7
Make straight for the shore.
G     G/F#	   D       Bm7
   We marry tomorrow,
     Em7       E7        A7  A7+5
And she goes sailing no more.
D  DM7            D7    G       Gm7	      D   Cdim  A
Red sails in the sunset,   way out on the sea,

Oh carry my loved one        home safely to me.

 

To Each His Own
Tom: Cm
   CM7         F9            CM7         F9
A rose must remain with the sun and the rain,
        CM7           Dm7        Em7    Dm7
Or its lovely promise won't come true;
G7         Dm7/G    Dm7             Dm7/G  CM7     FM7
To each his own, to each his own -- and my own is you.
     CM7        F9          CM7                 F9
What good is a song, if the words just don't belong?
       CM7             Dm7      Em7     Dm7
And a dream must be a dream for two.
   F#m7-5          B7          Em7 A7  Dm7  Fdim(I)  C9        
No good alone, to each his own --  for  me  there's you.
Bridge:
      FM7
If a flame is to grow there must be a glow,
   Em7       A7             Em7    A7
To open each door there's a key;
    D                  DM7
I need you, I know, I can't let you go;
     Am7              D7     G7
Your touch means too much to me.
     C        BbM7           C        BbM7
Two lips must insist on two more to be kissed,
           CM7             Dm7     Em7  Em6  Dm7 G7
Or they'll never know what love can do;
       F#m7-5   B7  Em7   A7
To each his own, I've found my own,
 Dm7   G7      C                 
One and only you.

Twilight Time
Tom: C
C                                    E7
Heavenly shades of night are falling,  it's twilight time,
Am                                     C7
Out of the mist your voice is calling,   it's twilight time,
F            Fdim             C              A9
When purple colored curtains mark the end of day,
    D9                            D7      Dm7     G7
I hear you, my dear, at twilight time.
C                                 E7
Deepening shadows gather splendor   as day is done;
Am                                   C7
Fingers of night will soon surrender    the setting sun.
F           Fdim               C                    A9
I count the moments, Darling, til you're here with me,
    D9       G                  C       Fdim       C
Together, at last, at twilight time.
Bridge:
D9           E7
Here in the afterglow of the day,
    Am                 Fdim  Am  Fdim   Am
We keep our rendezvous, be-neath  the blue;
D7
Here in the sweet and same old way,
    G7                F   Em  Cdim  Dm7
I fall in love again, as  I   did  then.
C                                         E7
Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me,   like days of old,
Am                                       C7
Lighting the spark of love that fills me   with dreams untold;
F          Fdim              C                A9
Each day I pray for evening, just to be with you,
    D9       G                 C      C/B     Edim
Together at last at twilight time,
Coda:
    D9        G                 C      Fm     C(M7)
Together, at last, at twilight time.

1. Oh yes, I'm the Great Pretender,      pretending I'm doing well.

    My need is such, I pretend too much, I'm lonely but no one can tell.

2. Oh yes, I'm the great pretender,      adrift in a world  of my own.
        C        D           G        C            G           D         G - G7
    I play the game, but to my real shame, you've left me to dream all alone.
         C                       G            G7
    Too real is this feeling of make believe,
         C                         G             D
    too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal.
       G              D      G      G7        C                        G - G7
3. Oh yes, I'm the great pretender,     just laughing and gay like a clown.
       C       D            G        C
    I seem to be, what I'm not, you see,
         G          D             B7       G            D             G  - G7
    I'm wearing my heart like a crown, pretending that you're still around.  
         C                       G              G7
    Too real is this feeling of make believe,
          C                        G             D
    too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal.
       G             D        G       G7        C                        G - G7
4. Oh yes, I'm the great  pretender,      just laughing and gay like a clown.
      C      D            G        C        G          D            B7
  I seem to be, what I'm not, you see, I'm wearing my heart like a crown,
        G            D             B7
    pretending that you're still around, 
        G             D             G  - C - G
    pretending that you're still around.

 

Smoke gets in your Eyes
Tom: D
    D    Bm              Em    A                D    Bm   G 
1. They asked me how I knew, my true love was true, oh, oh,
    Em              F#m   B7              Em    A            D  - Bm-Em-A
    I of course replied, something here inside cannot be denied.
     D    Bm                    Em    A               D     Bm  G
    They said, someday you'll find all who love are blind, oh, oh, 
      e                   F#m  B7           Em     A                 D
    when your heart's on fire, you must realize smoke gets in your eyes.
    - G - D - F
    Bb
    So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed,
                          F    E  F
    to think they could doubt my love.
    Bb                     Gm
    Yet today my love has flown away, 
             D    Bm  Em   - A
    I am without my love.
    D   Bm                Em     A             D    Bm   G
2. Now laughing friends deride tears I cannot hide, oh, oh
    Em             F#m    B7                 Em
    so I smile and say, when a lovely flame dies, 
      A                 D          Em
    smoke gets in your eyes, your eyes,
      D                 Em         G    Em  G    D
    smoke gets in your eyes, smoke gets in your eyes.
