            “The Man I Love” – Billie Holiday
{Chords by Joan’s Genius 2001}

[Intro]
A                Bm
When the mellow moon begins to beam
A               Bm
Every night I dream a little dream
A                     Bm                     C#m      E7
And of course Prince Charming is the theme I heed for me
A             Bm
Although I realize as well as you
A             Bm
It is seldom that a dream comes true
C#m           D    
To me it's clear
A             Bm
That he'll appear

[Verse 1]
A
Some day he'll come along
C#m
The man I love
A7
And he'll be big and strong
F#m
The man I love
Bm
And when he comes my way
C#m                 A   Bm  A    
I'll do my best to make him stay

[Verse 2]
A
He'll look at me and smile
C#m
I'll understand
A7
And in a little while
F#m
He'll take my hand
Bm
And though it seems absurd
C#m                 Bm  C#m  E7 
I know we both won't say a word

[Bridge]
C#m                     F#m 
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Bm            Dm
Maybe Monday, maybe not
C#m                        F#m
Still I'm sure to meet him one day 
Bm                    A       C#m  E7
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

[Verse 3]
A
He'll build a little home
C#m
Just meant for two
A7
From which I'll never roam
F#m
Who would? Would you?
Bm
And so all else above
C#m                 A  Bm   A
I'm waiting for the man I love

[Bridge]
C#m                     F#m 
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Bm            Dm
Maybe Monday, maybe not
C#m                        F#m
Still I'm sure to meet him one day 
Bm                    A       C#m  E7
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

[Verse 3]
A
He'll build a little home
C#m
Just meant for two
A7
From which I'll never roam
F#m
Who would? Would you?
Bm
And so all else above
C#m                 A  Bm   A
I'm waiting for the man I love
