'The Man I Love' ' Billie Holiday
Intro:
[A]When the mellow m[Bm]oon begins to beam
[A]Every night I dr[Bm]eam a little dream
[A]And of course Prince C[Bm]harming is the theme I [C#m]heed for [E7]me
[A]Although I rea[Bm]lize as well as you
[A]It is seldom t[Bm]hat a dream comes true
[C#m]To me it's cle[D]ar
[A]That he'll app[Bm]ear
Verse 1:
[A]Some day he'll come along
[C#m]The man I love
[A7]And he'll be big and strong
[F#m]The man I love
[Bm]And when he comes my way
[C#m]I'll do my best to m[A]ake [Bm]him [A]stay
Verse 2:
[A]He'll look at me and smile
[C#m]I'll understand
[A7]And in a little while
[F#m]He'll take my hand
[Bm]And though it seems absurd
[C#m]I know we both won't[Bm] say[C#m] a wo[E7]rd
Bridge:
[C#m]Maybe I shall meet him S[F#m]unday
[Bm]Maybe Monday, [Dm]maybe not
[C#m]Still I'm sure to meet him [F#m]one day
[Bm]Maybe Tuesday will be [A]my good [C#m]news [E7]day
Verse 3:
[A]He'll build a little home
[C#m]Just meant for two
[A7]
[F#m]Who would? Would you?
[Bm]And so all else above
[C#m]I'm waiting for the [A]man[Bm] I lo[A]ve
(repeat Bridge & Verse 3)
