Why did my sweetie leave me?
Eb         Bb7     Eb
Why did we have to part?

No other sweetie can re - lieve me

E7Of this aching heart.

Eb          Bb7      Eb
Why can't I have the sunshine?
Eb            G7       Cm
Sunshine in - stead of gloom?
F7                 Bb         Gdim
Why must I have to  live with shadows
Cm    F7    Bb7    A7Bb7
in my little room?

Chorus:

Eb                                    EbEb+CmEb+
When the night is dark and peaceful,
Eb                       B
Loving hearts are all in tune
        Bb7
There's two lonesome people in the whole wide world,
C7     F7         Bb7         Eb    Bb+
That's me and the man and the moon.

Eb                                 EbEb+CmEb+
When the little birds are nesting,
Eb                   B
And I listen to them croon,
         Bb7
There are two lonesome people in the whole wide world,
C7     F7         Bb7         Eb
That's me and the man and the moon.

Cm              D7
Just before I'm counting sheep,
G7                   C7
Through my window he comes to peep,
F7                                Bb7
And with each other we're sympa - thizing!

Eb                             EbEb+CmEb+
Looking at those happy people,
Eb                        B
While they sit around and spoon
        Bb7
There's two lonesome people in the whole wide world,
C7     F7         Bb7         Eb    CBb7
That's me and the man and the moon.

Verse 2:

Eb            Bb7       Eb
Nothing could please me better,
Eb            Bb7        Eb
Nothing could bring more cheer
Bb7               Eb   D7   Db7    C7
Than to receive a nice love let -  ter
F7             Bb7   Bb+
From my sweety dear.

Eb          Bb7     Eb
Nothing but disap ñ pointment
G7         Cm
Adds to my misery
F7          Bb       Gdim
Nobody ever seems to  care for
Cm      F7    Bb7A7Bb7
Melan - choly me
