no, no, they (Bbmaj7)can’t take that a (Am)way from (G7)me!

The way your smile just beams,

the way you sing off key,

the way you haunt my (G#m7)dreams,

no, no, they (Bbmaj7)can’t take that a (C7)way from (F)me!

We may (Am)nev er, (D9)nev er (Am)meet a (D9)gain on the (Am)bump y (F7)road to (E)love,

still I’ll (Am)al ways, (D9)al ways (Am)keep the (D7)mem ’ry of:

the way you hold your knife,

the way we danced till three,

No, no!

They (Bbmaj7)can’t take that a (C7)way from (Dm)me!

(Bbm)No, they (D7)can’t take that a (Gm7)way (C7)from (F)me!

We may (Am)nev er, (D9)nev er (Am)meet a (D9)gain on the (Am)bump y (F7)road to (E)love,

No, no!

They (Bbmaj7)can’t take that a (C7)way from (Dm)me!

(Bbm)No, they (D7)can’t take that a (Gm7)way (C7)from (F)me!

We may (F)me!
