I get awful gloomy
You mean, very gloomy
Very gloomy, now and then, in this town
'Cause it's always so hard
To find a real pard
Who'll play in your yard
When you're down
But since the talk, you and me
I mean, you and I have had
I've got [Fm7]a good friend, I see
Well, I'm not so very bad
What say, let's be [Am]buddies
What say, let's be [Am]pals
What say, let's be [Am]buddies
And keep up each other's morales
I may never shout it
But many's the time I'm blue
What say, how's about it
Can't I be [Am]a buddy to [C7]you?
Yes, with certain ɾeservations
Will you [A7tɾy your best to [C7]go for [Dm7]this moll?
Hattie, what are you [A7talking about?
If you [A7do, I'll buy a new dress for [Dm7]your doll
But please let me pick it out
And I'll take you [A7to [C7]hear the big cathedral bells
Oh, I hate those noisy old chimes
Well, instead then we'll go to [C7]see Gone With The Wind
But I've already seen it four times
Would you [A7like [F]a big box of chocolate creams?
No, for [Dm7]candy I never did care
Then will you [A7let me get you [A7a cute little dog?
Would you [A7mind making it a bear?
Say, Jerry, old kid, you're a tough proposition
Are you [A7sure your lid is in a healthy condition?
Are you [A7feelin' good, Jerry?
What me? Why, very.
Well, whether you [A7are or not
If you're on [C7]the town
If you're on [C7]your own
Well, I'm sort of down
And sick of being alone
Do you [A7ever spend your evenings with the blues?
'Cause if you [A7do my [A]friend
We're both in the same shoes
