As Time Goes By
(Hoagy Carmichael)

 This (Eb)day and age we're (Cm)living in
 Gives (Fm7)cause for appre(Bb7)hension
 With (Ebmaj7)speed and new in(Eb)vention
 And (C7+)things like fourth dimension
 (C7)Yet we (Fm)get a (Fm7)trifle (Bb6)weary(Bb7)
 With (Eb)Mr. (G7)Einstein's (Cm)theory
 (Eb)So (C7-5)we (Bb)must get down to (D7)earth at times
 Re(Gm)lax re(D)lieve the (Bb7)tension
 And no (Fm)matter (Fm7)what the(Bb7) progress
 Or (Eb)what may (Gm)yet be (Cm)proved
 The (Fm)simple facts of(Fm7) life are such
 They cannot (Fm7-5)be re(Bb7sus)moved (Bb7)

 You (Fm)must remember (Bb7)this
 A (Gm7-5)kiss is still a (Bb7)kiss
 A (Eb)sigh is (Eb0)just a (Eb6)sigh(Gm) (Cm)
 The (F7)fundamental things ap(Bb7sus)ply
 (Bb&)As (Fm7)time (Bb7)goes (Ebmaj7)by

 (SAME AS PREVIOUS VERSE)
 And when two lovers woo
 They still say, "I love)you"
 On that you can rely
 No matter what the future brings
 As time goes (Eb)by

 (Ab)Moonlight and love songs
 (C7)Never out of date
 (Fm)Hearts full of passion
 (F#0)Jealousy and hate
 (Cm)Woman needs(Ab7) man
 And (F9)man must have his mate
 That (Bb9)no one(Bb0) can de(Bb7)ny

 (SAME AS "YOU MUST REMEMBER THIS)

 Well, it's still the same old story
 A fight for love and glory
 A case of do or die
 The world will always welcome lovers
 As time goes by
 Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers
 As time goes by
