[F] Johnny Mercer from Savannah, Georgia.
[C] You know, he was [Bb] asked what his very favorite popular [C] song was of all [Gb] time.
He said a song written by [G] a colleague of mine, Gus Kahn from [Gb] Chicago.
Here's that wonderful song.
[C] It seems like dreams, [Cm] like I've always [D] had,
[Bb] Could [Bbm] be, should be, [A] making me [F] glad.
[E] Why am I blue?
[Gm] It's [Gb] up to you [F] to explain.
[Db]
[Bb] I'm [C] thinking maybe, baby, I'll go away.
Someday, someway, [D] maybe you'll come and [F] say
[Dm] It's [B] you that I [Dm] need.
[Em] And you'll [D] be pleading [Am] in vain.
[Gm]
[C] It had to be [F] you.

[F] I [E] [Dm]
[G] wandered [Dm] around [F] and finally found
[Dm] The somebody who could [G]
make [Gm] me be true,
[Bb] [Db] Could [Dm] make me be blue,
[A] [Dm] [A]
Even [Dm] be glad just to be sad.
[G] [Gm] Thinking of you, [F] [Am] some others [C] I've [F] seen
[Bb]
[F] [Bbm] Might never [D] be me,
[Eb]
[E] [Db] [D] [G] Might never be [Dm] cross or [F] try to be [G] boss,
[Dm] But they wouldn't do.
[Cm] [B] For [Bb] nobody else, nobody [G] else gave me a thrill.
[F] With all your [A] faults, I [Dm] love you still.
It [C] had to be [Am] you, [Gm] wonderful you.
[A] It had to [C] be [F] you.
[Bb]
[F]
[C] Love
