Neil Sedaka - Betty Grable Chords

[Intro]
G        Bm        Am        C/D
G        Bm        Am        C/D
 
[Verse 1]
G                   B7           Em             G7
When I used to be a little kid I used to go
C              E                Am              Cm
every Saturday afternoon to the picture show,
G                          B7
close up to the screen, my life was so serene,
  Em                        A7                  Am    D7
I lived through every scene with my movie queen:
      G        Bm        Am        C/D
Betty Grable.
 
[Verse 2]
      G                         B7              Em       G7
Three hundred howlin' kids were always pack the house
    C                  E               Am              Cm
but they just came for Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse;
    G                         B7
but there would be a world of fantasy,
               Em                   A7              Am    D7
wrapped in the melody, she sang and danced for me:
      G        Bm        Am        C/D
Betty Grable.
 
[Verse 3]
G                B7              Em            G7
Lots and lots of pine up shots I had them all
    C               E          Am              Cm
and there they were pasted up upon the wall.
     G                     B7
When mama said that it was time for bed
             Em                             A7          Am    D7
I'd eat some jam and bread and watched your overhead,
      G        Bm        Am        C/D
Betty Grable.

[Verse 4]
Ab                     C7              Fm        Ab7
Just the other night I saw her on some late, late show
    Db                    F                   Bbm           Dbm
and it occurred to me I'm someone that she'll never know.
Ab                     C7
So I wrote this little song
Fm                     Bb7                Bbm    Eb7
for the lady that I've loved so long:
      Ab        Cm        Bbm        Db/Eb
Betty Grable.

every Saturday afternoon to the picture show,
