I [Dm7]sometimes sit and [G7]wonder just [Dm7]why I am [G7]able,
to [Dm7]get the lucky [G7]breaks I [C]do.
I’m [Gm7]luckier than [C7]Roosevelt, or [Gm7]Nuffield or [C7]Gable,
they’ve [Gm7]never been [C]in [G7]love [C]with [F]you


They [G7]may have lots of money and [C]importance,
I [G7]know I’d fail where they suc[C]ceed,
But [F]though my worldly wealth are only [D7]fourpence, [D7]
[G7]what more do I [C7]need?


They can [F]take away the chairs, the [Dm]carpet from the stairs and
[Bb]all that they can [A7]see. [A7]
It [Gm7]won’t mean [Bbm]anything, [F]so long as I’ve got [Bbm]
you, [D7]you’re [Gm7]every[C7]thing to [F]me. [C7sus4]


[C7]They can [F]take away the slates, the [Dm]number from the gate
and [Bb]even take the [A7]key, [A7]
[Gm7]It won’t mean [Bbm]anything [F]so long as I’ve got [D7]
you, you’re every[C7]thing to [F]me.


I can [Dm7]do without cigars and [Bb]Rolls Royce motor cars and
[Bbm]walk the way I’ve [F]done
And [Bb]although the weather’s damp I can [Gm]do without my gamp
When you’re [Gm7]everything rolled into [Bbm]one.


[C7]I can give up [F]all I bought, [Dm]without a single thought, [Bb]it’s
not so hard you [A7]see. [A7]
[Gm7]It won’t mean [Bbm]anything [F]so long as I’ve [D7]got you,
[D7]you’re [Gm7]every[C7]thing to [F]me.


[C7]I [F]can do without my fags or the [Dm]bottom to my bags
(budada[Bb]bum), I’d even go [A7]T.T. [A7]
I [Gm7]don’t need [Bbm]anything [F]so long as I’ve[D7]got you,
[D7]you’re [Gm7]every[C7]thing to [F]me. [C7sus4]


[C7]I can [F]get along with now’t [Dm]aye, and can even do without
[Bb]me Auntie Maggie’s Reme[A7]dy [A7]
I [Gm7]don’t need [Bbm]anything [F]so long as I’ve [D7]got [D7]
you, you’re [Gm7]every[C7]thing to [F]me.


I’d give [Dm7]up without a shock, my [Bb]stick of Blackpool Rock
[Bbm]Although it gives me lots of [F]fun.
I can [Bb]do without my pipe or my [Gm]weekly plate of tripe
For you’re [Gm7]everything rolled into [Bbm]one.


[C7]I [F]can do without my boots or [Dm]without my swimming suit,
I’d [Bb]undress in the [A7]sea, [A7]brrrrr
I [Gm7]don’t need [Bbm]anything [F]so long as I’ve got [D7]you,
[D7]you’re [Gm7]every[C7]thing to [F]me.


[C#7]You see [Gm7]you’re every[C7]thing [F]to [Bbm]me. [F]
