            Someone to Watch Over Me
George & Ira Gershwin
[Intro]
[G   Ddim7    Am7    D11]
G(addA)                          G7
There's a saying old, says that love is blind
Cmaj7                             A7                     
Still we're often told, seek and ye shall find
Am7                               D7(b9)
   So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
[G   Ddim7    Am7    D11]
G                            G9
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
Cmaj7                     A7
He's the big affair I can-not forget
D11                           D7(b9) Gmaj7
    Only man I ever think of with re-gret
[G7b5    Am7/G    G]
Bm             Em                 Bm
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
D/A       Em7          A7           D    D/C  Bm7  D7/A
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb
G                      C6         Cdim7
There's a somebody I'm longing to see
G6/B       Gdim7/Bb      D7/A         G#dim7
I hope that he           turns out to be
Am7      E7/B     Am7/C     C#m7(b5)   D11         Bm7(b5)
    Some-one      who'll     watch             over me
[E9    Am7b5   D9]
G                        C6         Cdim7
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
G6/B       Gdim7/Bb         D7/A      G#dim7
I know I    could           always be good
Am7    E7/B     Am7/C     C#m7(b5)   D7(b9)    G
    To one      who'll     watch          over me
G9/6                  C                    Am7
     Although he may not           be the man
           Bbdim7            G6
Some girls think of      as handsome
    F#7           B7                 E7
To my heart    he carries       the key
[A7     D11    D7(b9)]
G6                           C6          Bbdim7
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
G6/B      Gdim7/Bb
Follow my lead
D7/A     G#dim7
Oh how I need
Am7     E7/B   Am7/C     C#m7(b5)    D9               
   Some-one    to        watch                           
     Bm7b5     B7    E7(b9)
over me
Am7     E7/B   Am7/C     C#m7(b5)    
   Some-one    to        watch 
    D7(b9)      G
over            me
[Em7b9    Eb9    Ab9Aug11    C9b5]
