[Bbm7]
I heard he [Eb]sang a good song
[AbM7]I heard he [Db]had a style

[Bbm7]I felt all [Eb]flushed with fev[Ab]er
maj7In there is [Db]vital crowd
[Bbm]I felt he [Bbsus4]found my letters and [Fm]read each one out loud
[Bbm]Afraid that [Eb7]he would finish
[Ab]But he just [C7]kept right on

[Bbm7]He sang as [Eb]if he knew me
[AbM7]In all my [Db]dark despair
[Bbm]And then he [Bbsus4]looked right through me as [Fm]if I wasn't there
[Bbm]And he just [Eb7]kept on singing
[Ab]Singing [C7]clear and strong
