Chorus 1:
                     
  G    G#dim
A fine romance,
     Am6A#dim
With no kisses
  Bm7  Em7
A fine romance,
   Am7     D7
My friend, this is
   G                G6
We should be like a couple of
A#dim  Am7D7
hot to-ma-toes
    G6                E7
But you're as cold as yesterday's
C7        B7 E7   D7
mashed po-ta-toes

  G    G#dim
A fine romance,
    Am6   A#dim
You won't nestle
  Bm7  Em7
A fine romance,
    Am7   D7
You won't wrestle
     G               G7
I've  never mussed a crease in your
           C     E7
Blue serge pants
Am7     A#dim   Bm7    Ddim
I never had the chance
Am7       D7      G     BdimAm7D7
This is a fine ro-mance

Chorus 2:

  G    G#dim
A fine romance,
   Am6  A#dim
My good fellow
    Bm7  Em7
You take romance.
     Am7  D7
I'll take Jello
       G               G6
You're calmer than the seals
       A#dim  Am7D7
In the Arctic O-cean
   G6                    E7
At least they flap their fins to
   C7      B7 E7   D7
Ex-press e-mo-tion

  G    G#dim
A fine romance,
     Am6A#dim
With no quarrels
     Bm7Em7
With no insults,
    Am7     D7
And all the morals
       G               G6
You're just as hard to land
              C      E7
As the Ile de France
Am7     A#dim   Bm7    Ddim
I never get the chance
Am7       D7      G     BdimAm7D7
This is a fine ro-mance

Chorus 3:

  G    G#dim
A fine romance,
     Am6A#dim
With no kisses
  Bm7  Em7
A fine  romance,
   Am7      D7
My  friend, this is
     G                    G6
True love should have the thrills that
  A#dim   Am7   D7
A healthy crime has
   G6                   E7
We don't have half  the thrills that
     C7       B7   E7  D7
"The March of Time"has

  G    G#dim
A fine romance,
     Am6A#dim
With no clinches
  Bm7  Em7
A fine romance,
     Am7D7
With no pinches
    G              G7
You never give the orchids
         C      E7
I send a glance
Am7          A#dim  Bm7    Ddim
No, you like cactus plants
Am7       D7      G
This is a fine ro-mance
