Except For You

words and music by Howard Ashby Kranz

 

D                      F#                   Bm   D   D7

Everyone was gone, except for you.

G                  B7                  Em    G   G7

I only had to turn and then I knew.

C                                  Cm G                              E

Your eyes danced with mine; my blood turned to wine;

A                            A7                    D     D7

What could I ever want, except for you?

G                              B7                        Em     G    G7

When that sweet and silent dance was through,

C                       E                   Am   C   C7

All the world returned upon us two.

F                  Fm C                        A

I let go your hand; I woke once again:

Dm                              G                      C     G

How could dreams be real, except for you?

F                               A                       Dm      F   F7

When that sweet and silent dance was through,

Bb                    D                   Gm   Bb   Bb7

All the world returned upon us two.

Eb               Ebm Bb                    G

I let go your hand; I woke once again:

C#m                            F                    Bb  Ebm           Bb

How could dreams be real, except for you, except for you?
