Version 1 Version 2 Version 3
[Intro]
C G7
When the mellow moon begins to beam
C C+ F6 G7
Every night I dream a little dream
C A7 Dm7
And, of course, Prince Charming is the theme
G7+5 C
The he
A+ D7
For me
G7 C G7
Although I realize as well as you
Em Am Adim
It is seldom that a dream comes true
G D7-9
To me it's clear
G Gdim F
That he'll appear
[Verse]
C C7
Some day he'll come along
Cm7
The man I love
Gm
And he'll be big and strong
A7
The man I love
Fm6
And when he comes my way
G7 C Fmaj7 Em G7
I'll do my best to make him stay
C C7
He'll look at me and smile
Cm7
I'll understand
Gm
And in a little while
A7+5 A7
He'll take my hand
Fm6
And though it seems absurd
G7 G7sus4 G7 C F C F#dim F7 E7
I know we both won't say a word
[Chorus]
Am B7
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Bdim Am E7
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Am Am7 B7
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Bdim Am Edim F G7
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
[Verse 2]
C C7
He'll build a little home
Cm7
Just meant for two
Gm
From which I'll never roam
A7+5 A7
Who would—would you?
Fm6
And so all else above
G7 Dm7 G7 C F6 C G7
I'm waiting for the man I love
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
AM B7
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Bdim Am
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Am Am7 B7
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Bdim Am Edim F G7
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
[Verse 2]
C C7
He'll build a little home
Cm7
Just meant for two
Gm
From which I'll never roam
A7+5 A7
Who would—would you?
Fm6
And so all else above
G7 Dm7 G7 G7 C F6 C
I'm waiting for the man I love
