Some day he’ll come a long,
the man I love.
And he’ll be big and strong,
the man I love.
And when he comes my way,
I’ll do my best to (Gm7)make
(Cm7)him
(Fm7)stay.
He’ll look at me and smile,
I’ll un der stand.
And in a lit tle while,
he’ll take my hand.
And though it seems ab surd,
I know we both won’t (Eb)say
(Ab)a
(Ebdim)word.
(Cm)May be I shall (Cm7)meet him (D7)Sun day, (Ddim)may be (Cm)Mon day, (Cm6)may be (G)not.
(Cm)Still I’m sure to (Cm7)meet him (D7)one day; (Ddim)may be Tues day (Gdim7)will be (Ab)my good (Bb7)news day.
He’ll build a lit tle home,
just meant for two,
from which I’ll nev er roam.
Who would, would you?
And so all else a bove,
I’m wait ing for the (Eb)man
(Ab)I
(Ebdim)love.
