This song I'm going to sing for you is a song that I actually wrote in 1965 when I was a
very, very, very young boy.
And I used to work, before I sort of became a professional
songwriter, I worked in an outfitter's shop.
And to get to work each morning, I used to
stand at the bus stop and I saw this girl that I quite fancied and I wrote this song about [F#] it.

Bus stop, when day she's there I say, please share my umbrella.
Bus stops, bus goes, she stays, love grows under my umbrella.
[E] [A]
All [E] that summer [F#m] we enjoyed [D] it, wind and [E] rain and shine.
[F#m]
That umbrella we employed it, by [C#m] all good she [F#m] was mine.
[A]
Every morning [G#] I would see [C#m] her [E] waiting at [A] the stop.
Sometimes [F#m]
she'd shop, but she [G#] would show me what [C#m] she'd bought.
[A]
All the [G#] people stared as if [C#m] we were [E] both quite [A] insane.
Someday [F#m] my name and hers [G#] are going to be [C#m] the same.
That's [F#m]
the way the whole thing started, silly but it's true.
Thinking of the sweet romance beginning in May Q.
[E] [A]
Came [E] the sun, [F#m] the ice was melting, [D]
no more [C#m] sheltering now.
[F#m]
Nice to think that that umbrella led [C#m] me to [F#m] evolve.
