[Chorus] A6 Amaj7 A Amaj7 I'm as starry eyed and gravely discontented, A6 Amaj7 A Em7 A7 Like a nightingale without a song to sing. D Bdim A6 A/E Oh, why should I have spring fe ver, A/E Bm7 E7 Amaj7 When it isn't even spring? [Bridge] Bm7 Em7 Em7/B I keep wishing I were somewhere else, Em7 Gdim A7 D Walking down a strange new street, D Bdim C#7 Hearing words I have never never heard, F#m/A B7 E E7 From a man I've yet to meet. [Chorus] E7 A6 Amaj7 A Amaj7 I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams, A Amaj7 Em7 A7 I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing, D Bdim A6 A/E I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud, A/E Bm7 E7 E9 C#7 Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing, [Outro] Edim B7 E9 But I feel so gay in a melancholy way, A7 B7 That it might as well be spring, A/E E7sus E7 It might as well be, A/E E7sus E7 might as well be, A/E E7sus E7 A It might as well be spring.
