Chords for Peter Allen - Quiet Please, There's a Lady on Stage (Live 1977)

_ [A] _ _ _ Wow, this song [B] is the song that I wrote _ a little too late.
I've only been writing
songs about six, seven years and I always wanted to write a song for this lady
because she was a wonderful friend and I never got a chance to because I didn't
write songs then.
_ _ _ But I went ahead and I wrote this song anyway.
_ _ The song is
called Quiet Please and it's for Judy Garland.
