  Here's another dime for you, Mr. Songman

(break) [Verse]
        D             Dmaj7
In your ivory covered house

       D7                 G
Safe behind your walls of glass

Gm               D
You keep staring back at me

       E7              A
Like a memory from the past

          D                 Dmaj7
Won't you sing me away to a summer night

       D7                   G
Let me hold her in my arms again

       Gm              D
I know memory's not re-living

       A                  D
But at least it's not the end
[Chorus]
  [ A ]     D      A        D7       G
So, here's another dime for you, Mr. Songman

         A7                           G           D
Sing the loneliness of broken dreams away, if you can

A         D    A      D7       G
Yes, it's only me and you, Mr. Songman
