Fmaj7 Dm7 Gm7 Dm7/C G7b9/C C13

A7  Ebdim7
Ask me    
G9                    C13            C13b9    F6
how do I feel, ask me now that we're cozy and clinging
C(add9)/E Fm6
Well sir, 
F#dim7               Eb7     D7          G9      Gm7b5/Db C7
all I can say is if I were a bell I'd be ringing
C7b9     F          F/Eb        Bb/D  Bbm/Db
From the moment we kissed tonight
C7-9       F             F/Eb         Bb/D  Bbm/Db  
That's the way I've just got to behave
C7-9    F6                   Bb9
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light 
      A        Bb7        A
or if I were a banner I'd wave
A7  Ebdim
Ask me 
G9                    C13        C13b9    F6
how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
C(add9) Fm6
Well sir, 
F#dim7              Eb7      D7          G9       Gm7b5/Db  C7   
all I can say is if I were a gate I'd be swinging
C7b9   F        F/Eb      Bb/D   Abdim7     F/A      E7#5  Eb7
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs  
D9 D7b9  
or if 
Dm7/G    G9b5        Fmaj7   Dm7   Bbmaj7  C9   F6/9       Abdim Gm9
I were a bell I'd go ding   dong,  ding   dong ding

A7  Ebdim7
Ask me 
G9                       C13      C13b9          F6
how do I feel from this chemistry lesson, we're learning
C(add9)/E Fm6
Well sir, 
F#dim7               Eb7       D7            G9      Gm7b5/Db  C7
all I can say, is if I were a bridge I'd be burning
C7b9     F     F/Eb         Bb/D  Bbm/Db
Yes, I knew my moral would crack
C7-9       F       F/Eb           Bb/D  Bbm/Db    
From the wonderful way that you looked
C7-9    F6                   Bb9
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack 
       A         Bb7        A
or if I were a goose I'd be cooked
A7  Ebdim
Ask me 
G9                    C13             C13b9    F6
how do I feel, ask me now that we're fondly caressing
C(add9) Fm6
Pal, if 
F#dim7              Eb7      D7            G9       Gm7b5/Db  C7   
I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing
C7b9   F       F/Eb   Bb/D  Abdim7    F/A      E7#5   Eb7
or if I were a season, I'd surely be spring
D9 D7b9  
or if 
Dm7/G    G9b5        Fmaj7   Dm7   Bbmaj7  C9   F6/9       Eb6/9  F6/9
I were a bell I'd go ding    dong, ding   dong ding
